The reason I did it this way was because apache2 follows a similar
method to what I have done. My way has the following advantages:
1) The default site is created
2) The Debian Policy is not violated
3) It works very well, and lintian.debian.org suggests this particular
method in case of /var/www/ file installation.

README.Debian still contains info about not installing files in /var/www
, I will remove this info soon.
