Maintainer's guide

[Leslie Viljoen]

Hi All!

There was a rumour about a new Ubuntu maintainer's guide being worked on.
I have been talking with siretart about writing something similar to answer
packaging questions I had - but if there is going to be an Ubuntu 
maintainer's
guide, I should use that as the starting point, not the Debian one.

If there is such a guide, can it be put up in the Wiki? Then I can 
include things
there instead of making yet another half-guide.

If such a guide does not exist yet, I propose we put the Debian guide 
into the
wiki and start Ubuntu-izing it. Since (it seems) there is a shortage of 
maintainers,
a good doc would help to get new maintainers up and running quickly.

The first useful changes could be to make sure all the links point to 
the right
Ubuntu targets. For example, "the list of packages being worked on" FOR 
UBUNTU.
