and added you to the Debian Science team to grant you commit permissions.

Please consider uploading a new version soon (see d/watch file which I
added).  I usually would also have converted d/rules to use dh and I
would also have normalised d/control by

    cme fix dpkg-control

as well as converting d/copyright to DEP5.  Patches are also missing
DEP3 headers.  However, I did not wanted to be too invasive with your
package. :-)

BTW, I have CCed Gregor Hermann since after noticing that the package is
hosted at CPAN this might also be a package for Debian Perl team.  I
trust Gregor to decide whether he want to forward this for discussion or
leave it in Debian Science.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
