Go for it. Just remember this:
8.License Must Not Be Specific to Debian
The rights attached to the program must not depend on the program's
being part of a Debian system. If the program is extracted from
Debian and used or distributed without Debian but otherwise within
the terms of the program's license, all parties to whom the program
is redistributed should have the same rights as those that are
granted in conjunction with the Debian system.
