Yeah, Michael decided to increment the revisions and I followed suit in the packaging: * http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/xpdf.git > It looks very nice.

Not that big... :-) I took care to comment each of the patches in the commit list of the xpdf-poppler fork that I am maintaining in github. Also, I am including other people that may also be interested in getting an updated version of xpdf in Debian. While I prefer the version of poppler that I am maintaining I think that, for less disruptive changes, Michael's version may be preferrable.
