Empaquetando software para Debian: Herramientas y procesos básicos

While it is true that there are many non-technical areas where you can contribute to help Debian grow, fact is how to create a Debian package is a recurring question among people interested in getting into Debian. In this talk/tutorial we will see the basic points of packaging, understanding how to build a simple package.

Points to cover:

• What is a package?
• What is apt's role? And dpkg's?
• What do I need in order to create a simple package?
• Dependencies, recommendations, and everything that surrounds it

If we have enough time, I’d like to touch some points on team maintainership (keeping packages in version control systems, schemes and tools for group coordination and communication, etc.)
