It seems to make sense to me to just sync the debian version to
ubuntu. But, I think that we need to make contact with the ubuntu
developer about this.
The Ubuntu package is located at: https://launchpad.net/~tahoe-lafs and
seems to have 5 active members, although the team does not use Launchpad
to host a mailing list, and has no contact email. So I poked around and
I found the Administrator of the project, who appears to be Paul Hummer,
who seems to not have an email address listed in Launchpad
either. Fortunately, I used some Canonical contacts and found an address
that I think works, so Paul is now CC'd on this email!
Paul, would you mind weighing in on this?
