I'd suggest publishing builds (daily or otherwise) in a PPA
(https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA) so that people can try them
out easily. You'd definitely want some feedback before proposing the
packages for inclusion.

You could also set up a source build recipe
(https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/SourceBuilds/Recipes) by
registering your SVN branches for mirroring on Launchpad, I think.

I'm somewhat interested in learning more about packaging, but time is
always an impediment.

Lastly, please talk to Matthias Klose (doko) and Brian Sutherland
(jinty) if you haven't done so yet, though I suspect you might have
since you got this far.
