I think that is OK; if you find problems with it, please discuss them
here (or just correct them in the Wiki).

The usual way is to have one repository per upstream (=source)
package. So, I just created a "supernovas" repository
https://salsa.debian.org/debian-astro-team/supernovas
and made you the owner of it. The division into binary packages looks
sensible to me.
