Hi Martin,
thanks for your interest in Debian Med.

Its very nice to see that upstream trusts the Debian Med team and is
approaching us directly.

I have not yet checked out this and before I do I would like to suggest
that you move the actual Debian packaging to git.debian.org where all
our packaging code resides. This as several advantages (if interested
I could list them - one example would be that your work could be listed
on our imaging page[1] even in this stage).
My suggestion would be that you check out our team policy[2] that
explains how to maintain a package in our packaging Git. Since we have
also a mentoring program called Mentoring of the Month[3] and there is a
free slot for December I wonder whether you like to become a MoM
student. Considering that you are obviously comfortable with gbp I'm
quite positive that we will succeede in way less than a month.
What to you think about this?
Kind regards
Andreas.
