if before it was me sponsoring the uploads (original straight from the
source package on mentors, then directly from debian-science git), then
if in future some other debian-science team member uploads new version
of the package to Debian proper -- I will build backports for
NeuroDebian using the uploaded source package (not from Git).
I hope this makes it clearer ;)

IM/emails/etc can suck for delivering original mental/emotional
intent ;-) (may be that is why I use so many smiles, since I often cheer
while writing the replies ;) )
