OK tahnks for info, it seems  this rules out collab-maint, because if
my package is not yet in Debian, so I don't think I will find an
advocate. Collab-maint brings the following chicken and egg problem:

sponsored package wants to be in Debian -> sponsored packages needs a
VCS url to be reviewed -> VCS should be collab-maint for small
packages -> access collab-maint should be avocated -> advocate will
likely accept only if package is already in debian ...

But there are alternatives.
