I'm open to suggestions in this regards. I think that what should be done is contact the debian / ubuntu maintainers, get any interesting fixes they have which the kl version misses merged, and then just declare the kl version as being the new official upstream (with the blessing of the debian / ubuntu guys, and if possible also with the blessing of the original authors). This would require kl git to be open to others for pushing, or we could move the tree to git.linuxtv.org (which I assume may be easier then for you to make the necessary changes to give others push rights on kl.org).
