Dear Ravi,

As discussed on IRC, Just took a look at the package from your latest
branch here:

https://code.launchpad.net/~ravirdv/koza/main (dint build and test the
package though)

Few observations:

- Why is the ini file present in Databases/ folder? If its intended
for a different platform, it can be removed I guess
-  The TODO folder was empty when I had a look (if you are intending
to add something there, its worth keeping it orelse can be removed I
guess)
- d/compat file is in a executable script format and ideally shouldnt be.

- URL of specification in d/copyright is invalid.

You might want to use

http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/

and update to the latest format

Your d/copyright states Nokia as the copyright with some junk characters

Copyright: (C) 2011 Nokia -->

whereas AUTHORS file states

Copyright (C) 2012 Ravi Vagadia <ravirdv at gmail.com>

You might want to have another look at the same.

Stopping review here.

Reserving my vote for now

Regards,
