What's the reasoning for moving everything under packaging/? Usual Debian convention is just to put it on the top-level. There is debian/README.source as a convention to put source-packaging comments like what's in the current README.md.

I want to have a README that is displayed by Github so people that stumble upon this repository know what this is about and what the current status is.

But If I put both the README.md (or a .github/README.md) into the same directory as the debian directory then dpkg-source is complaining. So far I have found no other solution to keep dpkg-source (when invoked by pdebuild) happy.
