I've been learning to package. I'd be happy to work with this. Say
weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, etc. builds in the PPA.

The terminator package has been one I've been using to learn how to
package so I'm somewhat familiar with it. I assume the makefile will
undergo big changes as well.

If you want I could just build it in my own PPA. It would be great
practice for me and you wouldn't need to focus on that. I'd be up for
trying to keep the man page up to date as well.
