Wow, huge package. But it builds well. Did you see the lintian warning?

I assume you deliberately want to have the package in experimental
instead of unstable. I didn't check every single aspect of the package
but I'm willing to upload it to experimental. Might be best if you find
a DD who is using this software as a permanent sponsor. I'd have to take
an extra look at the package before I would upload it to unstable.

Uploaded to experimental.
