So I wanted to help get all the packages lined up for the Precise
Pangolin release and was wondering if we have a simple checklist to
follow for doing such things (eg. download file, change text in version,
do a debuild and then a dput?). I'm talking about existing packages that
are already working, though I assume some packages need dep changes (eg.
geos).
As a first step I attempted to copy packages from unstable to my
personal ppa last night. Some of which worked, but clearly isn't right
as the names say oneiric in them.

2nd topic is that I'd like to help clean up and straighten out the
packages we've got. For example, move Postgis 1.5 to stable and get
Postgis 2.0 into unstable, GDAL 1.8 to stable, GDAL 1.9 to unstable, etc...
I'm hoping that by learning to do the simple stuff and creating a checklist.
1. I can train more people to help do the mundane stuff
2. By handling the more mundane free up you packaging masters to handle
the trickier stuff.
Thanks,
Alex
