 Nice!

 Indeed; thanks!  Updating to newer tarballs is going to nicer, but
 there's going to be a small transition to the tarball mode which is
 going to be different on a per source basis, solving particular
 weirdness of each module.


 Weirdness is expressed per module below. :)
 I took the highest version of hardy and hardy ppa and compared to the
 released tarball versions.  I also checked whether we have bzr branches
 for these modules, but usually we don't.

 I think I'll propose splitting the updates amongst us soonish.


 crown-beach-config: normal update process, we have to update to the new
 version; warning: latest version of the source is in hardy, not in the
 ppa[1]

 gstreamer-dbus-media-service: we already have a 0.1.17 tarball in the
 ppa probably with custom changes in the tarball, we will have a problem
 replacing it with a different one; releasing a dummy 0.1.18 upstream
 would be nice, or we can remove from ppa and reupload

 hildon-theme-mobile-basic: we have to update to the new version and
 check we didn't have custom changes in the tarball

 marquee-plugins: we have a 0.22 tarball in the ppa (!) probably with
 custom changes in the tarball; releasing a dummy 0.23 upstream would be
 nice, or we can remove from ppa and reupload

 mobile-basic-flash: we have a 0.35 tarball in the ppa (!) probably with
 custom changes in the tarball; releasing a dummy 0.36 upstream would be
 nice, or we can remove from ppa and reupload

 mobile-matchbox-keyboard: is this the same as matchbox-keyboard?  Not
 sure we're tracking this or want to.

 moblin-clutter-home: we don't have it at all; looks like we want it
 though ;)

 moblin-games: we don't have it at all; don't know whether we want it

 moblin-keyboard-manager: we already have a 0.51 tarball in the ppa
 probably with custom changes in the tarball, we will have a problem
 replacing it with a different one; releasing a dummy 0.52 upstream
 would be nice, or we can remove from ppa and reupload

 moblin-media: we have to update to the new version and check we didn't
 have custom changes in the tarball

 moblin-media-browser-plugin: we need to update to the new version and
 check we didn't have custom changes in the tarball

 ppm: we have 0.8 in the ppa uploaded by Intel (but it fails to build);
 the module looks a bit young, so it might be best to revert it to an
 older version for now unless it's in use by anybody?  I've sent a
 review of the packaging and of the most important problems to the
 uploader.  I don't know what the version in hardy is capable of.

 samsung-q1-ultra-config: we need to update to the new version and check
 we didn't have custom changes in the tarball

 ume-config-common: we already have a 0.10+repack tarball in hardy
 created from the 0.10 release and repacked to drop the .git and
 debian/, we will have a problem replacing it with a smaller version;
 releasing a dummy 0.11 upstream would be nice, or we can epoch the
 version but that's painful.

 [1] Should be removed from the ppa, but not being removed for now as
 some people are using snapshots + ppa
