Well, first order of business is to get some revision control system for
parted, and open access to it. This is what i will be doing, and also
manage the debian directory in the same repository.

There was no old repositories, only full versioned tarballs.

I will first have 1.6.6 there, as parted--mainline--1.6.6, and then we
can work from there.

My plan is for having : 


parted--mainline--1.6.6 -----> bugfix branch
       |
       V
parted--devel--1.6.7 -> parted--mainline--1.6.7 -----> bugfix branch
       |
       V
parted--devel--1.6.8 -> parted--mainline--1.6.8 -----> bugfix branch

And so on.
