Thanks.

A dpkg-buildpackage should be enough.  As regards the signature, it
depends on where the package will be sent to.  If we just make it
available at the DOG website, then there is no need for signing.  If it
will go into 3.1r1, then I can sign it later.

At any rate, please make the files available somewhere when you are
done (.orig.tar.gz, .deb, .diff.gz, .dsc, .changes).

Cheers,
