* As you suggested, I removed the 27 debian/skype-translation-* files
and let instead debian/rules create them when building.
* Added debian/README.source which explains the simple nature of this
package. ;) It also mentions the reasons why I propose the native
source package format.
* Changed debian/copyright so it refers to GPL-3 instead of GPL-3+.
So far I haven't added "Enhances: skype" to the binaries. In a previous proposal I had "Depends: skype", but Iain Lane pointed out that you shouldn't let a package depend on packages that are not available in the ordinary archive. I suppose that objection would apply to "Enhances" too.
Thanks, Robie, for your feedback!
I have replaced the symlink idea, aimed at preventing possible future file conflicts, with the use of dpkg-divert, as suggested by Adam Conrad on IRC.

Hopefully it's now in a shape that makes it acceptable for upload. Please let me know if there still is anything that ought to be changed.
