Could you drop me a message when it is solved?

As long as my name is kept as uploader, I am fine. I would not agree if
my name was removed there.

I guess this is some kind of misunderstanding here. What do you mean
with "fight with me"? I would think it is normal that one takes the
responsibility for a piece of code, and the others discuss their changes
with him first, instead of just changing them. I would not name this
"fight for changes" (especially in our case since at the end you will
have the final decision on uploading the package). I would not call a
usual peer-review science process as "fighting" either, would you?
But maybe I missed something here in the debian-science-policy?

I will put them into the repo when the configuration issues are solved.
