It looks quite good, thanks.

- copyright:
the license text is supposed to follow the first time the license is
used in a License: field.
- Is there a reason why you don't want to maintain this inside the team?
Maintaining packages in teams is usually a very good idea, since it
allows us the share the workload in case you become too busy.
- in debian/control:
# hoe (>= 2.3.3, development)
remove that line, or integrate it in one of the (Build-)?Depends fields.
If you want to maintain this within the team, please import the package
to the team's git repo, and add the team in Maintainer or Uploaders.
If not, I will sponsor the upload after you fix the second problem
above.
