I suggestd multiple times to join our efforts, but you never opted
into it ... usually debian is behind which is why i suggested to use
the ubuntu branches to work on.

For the sake of getting this done, I am fine to move this in a debian
hosted archive. Only technical issue is svn. Merging and doing distro
specific branches is just too cumbersome that it stays efficient imo.

Of course I would prefer to go for launchpad, but given that new NM is
in git, we can just go for alioth git. Please give me heads up what
you think.
