As I understand it, the only reason why we maintain a fork of Adaptagrams is that there isn't an upstream release yet.
Is anyone in touch with the upstream Adaptagrams dev (M Wybrow)? If we could persuade him to make a release tarball, perhaps we can get it adopted by some distros... and then finally drop our fork!

I'm concerned about reports like these of compatibility issues when using git submodules.
I haven't used git submodules myself but I have used similar functionality in other VCS's in the past and had similar experiences with them causing problems integrating with other tools, and needing more manual attention and management than expected.
I suspect it will be easier for especially new devs if we stick with external dependencies for what can be external, and copied-in code for whatever can't, and focus on minimizing the latter and maximizing the former as much as possible.

I attempted to sync the code for my other project (launchpad.net/qwwad) from github to Launchpad so I could build a PPA from a source recipe... it seems that git submodules were ignored in the import!

This would also be highly desirable, but we should ensure that

Why? What can be a system that doesn’t support submodules? Aren’t

managed by Git?
"git archive" doesn't include submodules, so anything that uses a
tarball
generated from that will miss parts of the sources.
