Notice that :

  1) Once you upload the packages, you will have to wait a few weeks for
  it to be read by James Troup or another ftp master and then added to
  the override file, if there is no problems or such.

  2) If it works and is lintian clean, what are you afraid with regard
  to quality ? Anyway, you can always do some package checking during
  the time the package is sitting in NEW, and upload a fixed version
  once it has been accepted or even before that.

  3) The more people review the package, the more testing it will get,
  and it may well give you an experience with the BTS you probably will
  be needing for your NM application anyway.
