Hi I'm currently trying to package V14 of Metadata plugin for Ubuntu Quantal (https://launchpad.net/~privatedata/+archive/dovecot-2.2.2/) to be installed along with dovecot 2.2.4. According to my efforts packaging the plugin i do have some questions

For future releases, is it possible to add a link to the current release on the meta data mercurial page which includes in the filename of the tar.gz archive the current version number of the plugin ( metadata-plugin-v14.tar.gz). That would allow to add an appropriate line in the debian/watch file to detect when a new release of the plugin is available. Currently i have to check mercurial page manually and use an updated version mangling entry to ensure that the packaging system downloads the latest version. The link would help to simplify this. Especially as the base link in my debian/watch file currently points to tip.tar.gz and not to the archive the linke of the V14 tag points to. The sources i got represent the tip.tar.gz downloaded on July 19th 2013 23:16 CET which likely do not exactly correspond to the contents of the archive containing sources of V14. Therefore a versioned link to the source archives of the latest version would simplify things a lot, especially adding patches released for the latest version. As well as reporting the following addition.

Further I have added a doc directory stub, containing the configuration examples found in thread http://dovecot.2317879.n4.nabble.com/dovecot-metadata-8-released-tp10091.htm...
