At this stage you are done. Looks good. The .debs are not signed but the
signed .dsc file offers the MD5 hash values.

[omitting the debsigs bits]

You tell dput to e.g. upload the .changes files to mentors (or the
ftp-masters for your sponsor) and it will ftp the changes file and all
the other files referenced within with it.

Congratulations!
