What kinds of things to you have to commit into the debian dir?
(Sorry, I don't know anything about the debianization process.)

Could you briefly explain what kind of changes to the core source
affect you?  I am just rewriting some of the functions that have

I assume when you say 'freeze' you mean no more feature additions?  If
so I agree.
