The pbuilder type of builders and the bazaar plugin for Debian package
management tools with the Launchpad APIs give very promising solution.

All we need is documenting and testing  the whole chain.
I hope you get the documentation done soon as soon as possible.
Currently the ultimate reference seem to still be Debian New
Maintainers' Guide.
The Debian New Maintainers' Guide is a very smart reference and all developers who wants to package are suggested to read and understand it.

The Ubuntu documentation is a good reading too: http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/

and the net is full with relevant and good documentation (for example: http://wiki.debian.org/PbuilderTricks)

The fundamental problem is that there are way too many instructions :) and some of the are outdated and/or controversial.

The ultimate Ubuntu Touch cross builder documentation is on its way ... contributors are welcome :)
