Yeah, sorry -- this is my main concern.  I agree with Paul that
switching "ds" to "dfsg" is a little bit misleading, but I'm OK
conceding that one as long as we leave ourselves with some version
number breathing room by using ~ instead of + (which is why I was OK
with a reject since the version number of the fixed upload would be
lower anyhow so would require it regardless).

Well, I do have to admit that I was pretty surprised to have asked for
some review/sponsorship and to see that the version numbering scheme
was modified without discussion, which is the crux of what felt wrong
to me here.  Whitespace and versioning are my main pedantic vices.

I can definitely understand if you'd rather not spend any more cycles
on the package after this, but I know I'd certainly appreciate the
help (and my only ask would be that we switch + back to ~).

Sorry for the woes! >.<
