The packages are not in backports yet and have to go through the
backports NEW queue [1]. If I am not mistaken, the same rules as for
the regular NEW queue apply, such that the initial upload has to be
done by a DD. I had sponsorships of the initial upload for other
packages before (cgit, twinkle) for which I have DM upload rights.
