* Goals: Make a simpler version of dak.
* Pros:

** Easy to use incoming mechanism - even on remote systems - by using a cron-job
** Packages can be moved into a distribution by
** reading the Distribution value from .changes file or
** directly putting the whole package into a distributions-incoming directory. 
** Standard repository (can be pinned) 

* Cons:

** No Pool-architecture at the moment
** Some useful checks are missing
** Cleaning needs to be done manually 

* Package: 'debarchiver' <<Debian-Paket-debarchiver>>

* Distributions: oldstable, stable, testing, unstable

* Dependencies: unstable/devel/debarchiver
** adduser, apt-utils (recommended) | dpkg-dev, opalmod (Perl modules), gnupg (optional) 

* Automatic repositories: Yes
* Incoming mechanism: Yes

* Pools: No (but suggested somewhere at BTS).
* GPG signing: Yes (with gnupg, post-Sarge feature).
* Inclusion of .deb without .changes: ??
* Several versions of each package: ??
