If you could indeed make a pass to refresh debian/copyright -- that would be awesome. Ola -- what do you think -- should we aim for upload of 1.6 or we could finalize 1.5 may be first? if 1.6 -- then would be nice to import/merge upstream so that Geoffrey could have a pass on up-to-date source base > Thanks for your work in packaging this.
