Hi Christoph,

 * I re-wrote the README file to make hacking easier, here's a diff
that is waiting to be merged [1]. In that merge proposal I also added
a link to getdeb in playdeb
 * Before the revision history was reset, I modified getdeb.net's
interface by optimizing some of the images, removing extraneous/unused
images, modified the CSS to help with cross-browser support, added new
icons with proper anti-aliasing (removing the old ones), fixed a lot
of formatting, etc.
 * I also submitted a mockup before GetDeb was rewritten (see attached)
 * Non-web related, I submit some e-mails and requests for packaging

Lastly, I have apt-portal saved at revision 206 before it was reset
but I'm not sure how to look through it to see my specific revisions.
Would it be useful to anyone? Or would I be able to create a .diff of
all my revisions?

Hope that helps.
