All the binary packaging that I've done is in the binary-meta git repo,
which can be found here:

	http://repo.or.cz/w/opensync/binary-meta.git

If you would like to take a look at those packages, please do.
Keep in mind that it uses external debian directories, since the
binary-meta repo is really just a git repo of submodules.

The main goal of binary-meta is to make it as easy as possible to
build binary packages from the latest sources, even for end users.
But that doesn't mean that the other details of the Debian packaging
can't be improved.  I'm sure there's lots of improvement that can be done.

If what I'm saying doesn't really make sense, it will become more clear
once you look at how binary-meta does what it does. :-)
