These notes are for use in development, to ensure that developers
remember manually to put the correct dates and descriptions in all the
correct places before packaging `debram' for distribution.  Otherwise
these notes are unimportant.

Optional helper scripts are included to update the version number and
issue date across the several files automatically.

The most important updates needed are those to `def.h'
and `debian/changelog'.
