Great; that's what I was going to suggest. (Gotta love that rules
file...)

How do you plan on managing patches, and the packaging in general? I
could help with this particular issue, but it'd be more convenient if
your SVN repo looked like a standard svn-buildpackage layout (with
upstream on a branch).

Have you asked upstream if they plan to do a real version number? My
personal preference is to do something ugly like 0~20071230 now rather
than be stuck with 1:1.0 and so on later. (This is opinion, you can
ignore it :))
