RFS: advene

[Olivier Aubert]

Hello

Thanks to Jonas and Alessandro for their feedback. I will be glad to
join the multimedia team, and collaboratively work on this and other
packages. I will first address the remarks made by Alessandro, and
propose a new version of the package, lintian-clean and git-buildpackage
based. I am aware that the initial version of the package I have sent is
not in a perfect shape, but I first wanted to have some feedback on how
it would be received before taking the time to make it conformant to
Debian standards.

Best regards,
Olivier
