I've accepted your request to join the Debian GIS team, please read the backports section of the policy of you've not done so already:
https://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/policy/packaging.html#git-backports
Also read the Backports contributor documentation:
https://backports.debian.org/Contribute/
Specifically the Basic Rules.
Regarding the PHP MapScript changes, you'll need to undo the php5 -> php changes. The backport needs to keep using the php5-mapscript name.
The backported package must be built in a clean jessie chroot, and the the security sources need to be enabled for php5 updates. You'll need to modify the /etc/apt/sources.list in the chroot for that.
Please use this list to ask for review of the package and sponsoring of the upload.
Kind Regards,
Bas
