The package looks like it's in pretty good shape, but I have one issue 
I'd like resolved before I upload (perhaps kind of pedantic, maybe I've 
been reading too much debian-legal):

debian/copyright names the principal upstream authors and the license, 
but doesn't contain the actual copyright "statement". From what I could 
glean from the AUTHORS file and the headers from the source, you'd 
probably want something like:
