Exactly, and all things equal, why change (rhetorical question, not directed at Rob1n) ? Moblin was also DEB until a little over a year ago, I don't believe Moblin devs forgot how to do DEBs. So they know DEBs, we know DEBs, the two formats are a fair match featurewise, OBS now supports DEBs, too, license info can be embedded in DEBs, Maemo 6 is DEB, so the reason to switch is... ?
