That's another place I was stuck at, where to host things..

In theory if we were all debian developers we could use alioth. There may be a 
way for guests to use it but I'm not sure.

Other popular shared git repositories would be github or gitorious. I can make 
publically viewable repositories at work, but I'm not sure if that'd be useful 
enough.

Most of what I found was just needing to adjust dependency version information 
in the control files.

The kolab package repository is at: http://mirror.kolabsys.com/pub/
Their git browser is at http://git.kolab.org/

Unfortunately their debian package git repositories aren't browsable via the 
web. But I've managed to check out git repositories with debian packaging 
information from:

libkolab - git://git.kolab.org/git/apt/libkolab
libkolabxml - git://git.kolab.org/git/apt/libkolabxml
pykolab - git://git.kolab.org/git/apt/pykolab
kolab meta-packages  - git://git.kolab.org/git/apt/kolab
