@Israel,
Do you have a GitHub account? Since we track our milestone issues there,
there are some packaging tasks we would like your input on, but I'm unsure
how to tag you. :)
Also, we're preparing for the release of version 1.1 which we could use
your help with from an Ubuntu packaging perspective. Thanks!!
