Thks for the explanation. I was not aware of how things happen on Debian
world. Very interesting.

Well, I'd be more than happy. It seems you're TheMan when it comes to
Debian-related Lua stuff, so I will be pointing to your packages, and if
Jay has any contribution to your Debian packages, he could discuss them
with you or post patches to the right channels as you suggested. How does
that sound to you?

Just give me the final URL =)

Best,

Andre

PS: Jay, if you're reading this and has something to say, please speak up!
