Comment 10 for bug 907888

Iain, I would like to push it to Debian in the future, but I am not used to that process, and I think for now just having it in Ubuntu is fine. The new ubuntuone-dev-tools package requires this, and is blocking on this package getting in. We will also be moving more of the Ubuntu One code to this as soon as we can, after seeking an MIR for dirspec, and approval to get it on the CD.

Having it in Debian as well would be great, but I think it would be too disruptive to our (Ubuntu One team's) release process at the moment, to have to get new versions into Debian first. I'm happy to maintain it in Debian, but I'm not a DD yet, and I think it will take a bit of work for me to get there. And the rest of the U1 hackers who will be doing more packaging this cycle, are mostly still lacking in experience doing packaging on just Ubuntu. So, I'd rather avoid disrupting the process of building that experience by throwing a whole other process into the mix, while we try to smooth out our release process.
