You are welcome.  I should have added you before since you are Uploader of
some other packages ...

Its fine if you leave me out as Uploader.  I'm fine with doing team
uploads as I'm doing with lots of packages but I'd prefer to be
explicitly mentioned only if I really have some personal interest.

We have lots of this package in this status.  Luckily the upgrade process
is heavily automatized:

   https://salsa.debian.org/r-pkg-team/maintenance-utilities/blob/master/routine-update

I'd recommend also checking this (also for non-R packages).
