Can we aggree on some common naming scheme ?

For now I'm just using <distname>/ as prefix (which is used by my
pbuilder-based packaging tool for detecting the target distro),
but I'm open for discussion. The most important point for me is
having the whole tree (with all patches and debian/ subdir applied)
in one tree, so I never have to cope w/ extra patchqueues anymore.

Perhaps we could also move the upstream's master to a different name
and use that branch for as some starting point for per-package docs,
eg. branch descriptions, etc, etc (maybe as md/textile-based wiki)

hmm, yet another package manager ?

Why not just using docker+friends ?
