I think I could help here. I could think of setting up someting
which automatically creates debian packages from the current
code (stable and testing WM branches if we decide to stick to
this naming) and makes the results available so that people can
simply apt-get them. First thing we should do is add John's
debianisation code to the repo if it is not yet in there. I
could then setup a cron job which automatically pulls from your
repo and then does the builds. I cannot promise to look after
build problems every day, but the result should still be much
better than nothing.

Cheers,

M'bert
