** Description changed:

  Main Inclusion Request for bcache-tools.
- 
- Availability:
- Rationale: 
- Security:
- Quality assurance:
- UI standards: 
- Dependencies:
+ Availability: in Ubuntu universe since utopic
+ Rationale: needed for setting up bcache (block layer cache) devices.
+ Security: No CVE found.
+ Quality assurance: bcache-tools installs 2 executables into /usr/sbin, initramfs tools for dracut and initramfs-tools, and documentation.  README.Debian gives a
+  reasonable example of how to use.
+ UI standards: not really applicable.
+ Dependencies: All of bcache-tools are in ubuntu main (libblkid1, libc6, libuuid1, initramfs-tools)
  Standards compliance:
- Maintenance:
+   - standards-version is 3.9.5 (current 3.9.6)
+   - builds cleanly.
+ Maintenance: This is a reasonably simple package that interacts with kernel.
  Background information:
+  we need this in ubuntu server to take advantage of the practice of cacheing
+  slow spinning disks with fast ssds.
