You should have answered to the ITP, alone for transparency reasons and for 
avoiding that you syrup on each other's toes. (And also for the rest of Debian 
which is not part/aware of the Java procedures (I'm currently offline while 
writing this, so I could not check what it says. But I would be surprised if it 
says that normal Debian procedures can be ignored.)

Okay it's a new package... But still it seems to be the wrong order to upload 
first and then all later...

Dear Tobias and Tim,

Tobias, thank you very much for your response - I'm afraid I've only just
become aware of it. 

> > Did you contact Tim? (CC'ed him with this mail; he still owns the ITP)

No - as Tim placed this package under the maintainance of the pkg-java team
I was following the pkg-java procedure [1]. Appologies if that wasn't the
correct procedure to follow in this case.

Since filing the RFS I've completed the DD application process, and now have
upload rights. Prior to receiving Tim's e-mail, I went ahead and uploaded my
package to the NEW queue [2]. However, as a new DD I still consider myself
inexperienced, so any suggestions or corrections are gratefully received.

> I got seriously stuck packaging up dropwizard 

Tim, do you recall what you got stuck with? Your package looked in good shape
to my (inexperienced) eyes so I was surprised that it hadn't been uploaded. Did
you find some show-stopper that I've overlooked? (I haven't attempted to build
all of the modules, but I think it's considered acceptable for a pkg-java
package to omit some tricky non-essential modules.)

Thanks for your time.

Did you contact Tim? (CC'ed him with this mail; he still owns the ITP)

Please check with Tim if it is ok for him if you take over the ITP or
if he would be ok for a Comaintainer, tidy up the changelog (as this is
still an initial upload) and then remove the "wontfix".

Dear mentors,

  I am looking for a sponsor for the package "dropwizard-metrics". This 
software was originally
  packaged by Tim Potter , but does not appear to have been 
uploaded or updated

currently investigating
  packaging.
