[needs-packaging] mate-tweak

[Martin Wimpress]

Ubuntu MATE is an Ubuntu derivative that provides the MATE desktop environment. MATE is the continuation of GNOME2.

Ubuntu MATE has been given the green light by the Ubuntu Technical Board and Canonical IS have confirmed sufficient storage is available to host the Ubuntu MATE images. As a prerequisite to integrating Ubuntu MATE into the official build infrastructure some Ubuntu MATE packages (currently hosted in a PPA) need to be uploaded to the official Ubuntu archive.

  * mate-tweak - Configures some aspects of the MATE desktop not exposed via the MATE Control Center applets.

Settings that can be handled via MATE Tweak:

   - Show/hide standard desktop icons
   - Panel fine-tuning (icon visibility, in menus and on buttons,
     icon size, button labelling, contex menus, etc.)
   - Window manager fine-tuning
   - User interface layout switching

As we are in the feature freeze now, this should either wait for after vivid release, or get a freeze exception from the release team as described in <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/FreezeExceptionProcess#FeatureFreeze_for_new_packages>.

Unsubscribing sponsors for now.

Given that this package was added to the Upload Queue before the FF closed and is still there waiting for release, I feel that going through FF exemption now is a little unfair.

Updated debian/copyright as per the feedback from Adam Conrad.
