Maybe I'm being dense here, but why would either of you need to host it? If it's packaged for Debian, let's upload it to Debian and let it be part of apt-get and mirrored worldwide!
Absolutely. What I meant to say was ``host it until John comes along and offers to do it right.''
I took a quick look at it last night and I see only one sticking point: there's no version number anywhere. So now I understand that Neil really means it when he says they only do snapshots.
Neil, I have to put some sort of monotonically increasing version number on this package. Quite a few packages use a date as a version number, in varying formats, but always such that the result sorts nicely, of course. We should probably agree on something you like, because undoubtedly people will start referencing the version number when sending you bugs.
If dates are okay, then you could use either 2006.10.12 or 20061012. If you want to reserve the possibility of switching over to the 1.0, 2.0, ... style, we could pick 0.0.20061012.
Let me know if you have any preference. I expect I'll take a shot at packaging this tomorrow.
