Note that I'm not a DD and cannot upload this for you.

So sponsors, do you hear me?  Please handle this fine gentelman.

The only reason to avoid uploading release-quality packages to unstable is
to get some more testing for bugfixes to testing since more people run
unstable than testing+t-p-u.  For a new package, that's totally irrelevant,
and it would force you to do a separate upload later.

If you could upload it yourself, that would waste "just" buildd resources,
and since you can't, you'd have to bother a sponsor again.  Unless there's
some other reason I don't know about, I'd go straight to unstable.
