To attract more users of fwts and ease the packaging work for other
non-debian-based distros, it may be a good idea to release fwts in
the tarball format.

The series of patches updates the auto-packager scripts for the 
upstream maintainer (us!) to make the release tarball and checksum
in a bunch.

The presumed localtion of the release tarball is under my home in
kernel.ubuntu.com as written in one of the patch. But I would be
happier if we can find a *more formal* one.

Last the source format is changed to 3.0 (quilt) and with the enough
ACKs, the next version in debian/changelog will be 0.25.06-1 just to
indicate that fwts is no longer native packages.

Keng-Yu Lin (6):
  auto-packager: Add Quantal and remove Maverick
  auto-packger: update mkpackage.README
  auto-packager: Add mktar.sh to make the release tarball
  auto-packager: mkpackage.sh to handle the released tarball
  auto-packager: Update the mkpackage.README
  debian: change source package format to 3.0 (quilt)
