Regarding to documentation and whether packaging is hard, let me give
some dummy questions for you to reference:

1. What's the necessary initial setup? (What packages to install,
anything else?)
This seems documented somewhere.

2. After downloading the source package of foo from
http://packages.ubuntu.com/ , how can I re-build it?

3. What the h* is a source package?

4. How to create a (minimal) source package from scratch?

5. What's the best practices in packaging? (I also find some other
FOSS annoying mostly in this way, it is very hard to know what is the
best practice.)

6. How to deal with lintian warnings / errors?
