Cross-distro collaboration for lcdproc packaging ?

Hello

I've prepared an update of lcdproc package for Debian. Instead of keeping the 
work for myself and my distro, I think it would be more interesting for 
everybody to be able to share the work.

For this, we have some choices on how to proceed on sharing work.

First on sharing knowledge (i.e. where should we discuss packaging issues):
- Create and use a lcdproc-packaging mailing list
- use this list

For sharing packages files:
- Fling patches around on a mailing list
- create a separate repository for package files
- archive package file on lcdproc upstream CVS.

Personally, I think lcdproc project would probably learn interesting stuff 
from packaging issues, so I would favor using this list for packaging 
discussion (as long as it does not generate too much traffic).

Regarding package files, the best would be the latter option. Once we decided 
on the best way to share files, I'll send the files I've prepared for Debian.

What do you think ?

Are there other distro packagers lurking on this list ?

All the best

Dominique
