To clarify: you need to have your key in the Debian keyring. You can only
get your key in the Debian keyring when you are a Debian Developer.

To clarify: you need a sponsor (who has his key in the Debian keyring) to
upload your package. You should probably read the debian-mentors FAQ [1].
Maybe the current maintainer of qterm wants to sponsor your upload?
