Request for mentor and sponsor

What follows is the first of many programs I will be packaging in the
next several days, weeks, and months. At my company
<http://where2getit.com/> we are currently making a push to streamline
our software development/maintenance/deployment by tunneling it all
through the Debian packaging system. I will be maintaining internal
Debian package sources that will contain Debian packages of all the
software my company currently uses. This will allow us to easily set up
production, testing, and development systems simply by pointing apt-get
to our internal Debian sources with different distributions tailored for
our different environments. The software we will be packaging includes
not only free software not currently part of Debian, but all the
proprietary software my company develops for internal use. In the
process of debianizing the free software we use, we would like to see
these packages added to Debian in order to give back to the community.
The first of these is the String::Random Perl Module available on CPAN.
I have packaged this as libstring-random-perl. I packaged it using
debhelper >> 3 and it passes through lintian with no errors. I would
love for a sponsor/mentor to check out this package and if all is well
upload it to Debian or let me know what I did wrong.
You can find it located in
http://paulbaker.net/debian/dists/pbaker/main/binary-i386/interpreters/
or just point apt-get to 'deb http://paulbaker.net/debian pbaker main'
and 'deb-src http://paulbaker.net/debian pbaker main'
