I like the idea of a cheat-sheet. What would belong on there?

      * general introduction of where to find information about
        packaging
      * how to contribute stuff
      * what we focus on in which part of the cycle, what we DON'T do
      * an overview of where fixes/updates/etc. to stable go and how
        that works
      * ... what else? :-)

Have a great day,
 Daniel
