I disagree; `water' seems like a great name.
If it were a word that referred to common activity, then it might be
considered too generic, but it's not.
Summarising what people have said, seems to me the easiest thing for
occasional tweaking of existing man pages is to use a text editor, with
guidance from the HOW-TO, man 7 man and example man pages. The gui editor
gmanedit may be helpful too, I'll have a look at that when X4 gets working.

I disagree; `water' seems like a great name.
If it were a word that referred to common activity, then it might be
considered too generic, but it's not.

Ther is a package apt-move which do exactly the same. It creates
full mirrors or if you choose it moves the downloded packages to
archive structure. It has its own documentation.

Hello,
I'm in the NM queue and would like to (virtually) meet someone who
would lend me a hand. While I did some packages now, I'm still
not really fluent with the Debian packaging system. Also, I
want to tackle a big program where some help could speed things
up... PM welcome.
Thank you!

Won't work. Only the keyring maintainer (James) can add new keys AFAIK.
