Right, and that's why I quote again the changelog snippet. There is a
big difference between all of the changelog concerning you being:
* Team upload.
to it being
* Team upload.
* Fixed libquack linking with moox, depends: updated (Closes: #654321)
For the first case, if you are part of the team (and Carlos is as
well), just sponsor it and go on. But if you find something (trivial
or not) to fix on the package, being part of the team should mean you
don't have to list yourself in debian/control, and can just
acknowledge it by mentioning "Team upload" in the changelog.
