Hi Giulio, You might be interested to move this package to co-maintenance under the Debian Science Team [1] and integrate it to one of the tasks [2] in the future (perhaps the linguistics task [3]?). A few remarks: d/control: the source package is Section: text. Section: libs or Section: science is probably more appropriate. d/control: Homepage should probably be http://hlt-mt.fbk.eu/technologies /irstlm d/copyright: Source should probably be the Github repository, not the sourceforge page, which clearly says: "IRSTLM is no more supported on SourceForge."
