Well, the package you want to get into Ubuntu should have a sane (ubuntu) 
version number, but I guess you could just use a small script to adapt this 
for your packages. However this applies wether your package needs to get 
sponsored by someone or not.

This is debatable at least, and probably goes back to "don't use new changelog 
entry *only* for new uploads to revu". However since the package was in fact 
released via PPA, I'd consider it suboptimal to *not* preserve the old 
changelog entries.

> 3. Remove "universe/" from Section:

Nonetheless, all these issues aren't severe blockers, and can additionally be 
fixed w.o. much trouble, so if only these 3 points are reviewer comments you 
should at least know that the package is in good shape ;).

Cheers,
	Stefan.
