You should only update the package. At least I see no reason
to have a new package.
It could be uploaded onto experimental or possibly sid if

are not need for squeeze until release. Of course, squeeze
leaf packages could anyway be updated via testing-proposed-updates,
but migrating from sid is much more straight.
