Awesome.

Some things which might or might not be worth discussing:

 * Every patch should have a pseudo-header including the patch author
   and a patch description, as well as, if applicable, debian bug,
   upstream bug and upstream status (submitted, applied etc.).

 * naming scheme for patches based on upstream/debian status; dpatch and
   quilt can apply patches in arbitrary order so prefixing numbers is
   not required anymore; however, having one of the prefixes local,
   submitted and svn for Debian-specific changes, submitted patches and
   upstream applied patches (as done e.g. by the glibc package) might be
   desirable.  If CDBS' simple-patchsys is used, a number can get
   prefixed as well.
