Nice! I'm going to maintain Anjal for Moblin and since I'm a long term
Debian user so I think I can also try to package and maintain it for
Debian. But I'm new to Debian packaging.  It's very interesting.

Thanks! I didn't know this command before.

I'll try to build Evo 2.27.3 (as well as eds, webkit-gtk if needed)
first and will let you know when I'm ready.  For Anjal a patch to Evo
is needed and I'll try to talk with Anjal developers to get
justification for making that patch into main Evo package.
