+In terms of how the repository is structured: after discussing the
+possibility of supporting multiple systems, we decided it would be
+best to merge everything platform unspecific into the master branch,
+and then keep separate branches for each other system; e.g. at the
+moment we have the debian branch, which should be the same as the
+master branch except that it also contains a debian/ directory.  Now,
+this means that you should never edit platform-unspecific files in the
+debian directory; they should *always* be edited from the master
+branch.  The debian branch should never be merged into the master
+branch; merging should *always* happen the other way around.
