Isn't it reasonable to sync Debian and Freeciv :

- freeciv.org makes freeciv-*.deb daily from CVS tree and
  send it to debian.org/Incoming
- in stable Debian we have last stable Freeciv
- in unstable Debian we have current CVS Freeciv
- when Debian freeze, we put last stable to frozen, CVS to unstable,
  and update frozen only to new stable version if it appear during freeze
- maintainer of freeciv-* is set to `"Freeciv Team" <freeciv-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx>'

(this might be reasonable to exclude some other packages from Debian's cycle 
also)
