If the 0.7.x series is going to be the development version for a while, maybe something ŕ-la-Gimp like calling the package drbd0.7 (and having the date in the Debian version) would be appropriate. Otherwise, if the upstream development is pretty fast-moving, you could possibly use "drbd-cvs" as the package name (and still have the date in the Debian version). That way the ftpmasters wouldn't have to keep making changes to the override file.
