You even marked stuff fixed in the repo as pending in the BTS!

And in case we need something from them in the future, they're still in the git history. > and adding myself to the control file to be able to upload releases > in the future Yeah, lintian would argue if you're name stands at the end of the changelog entry and you're not in the uploaders (or maintainers) field. > This has to be approved by a Debian Developer anyway in a future > release, I hope to have gathered enough trust by then. Well, there are two ways. The one would be sponsoring, i.e. you prepare the package and a DD reviews and uploads it. But as you added already a "DM-Upload-Allowed: yes", I suspect you're heading towards becoming a DM to be able to upload the package yourself. For that at least one sponsored upload is needed though. > Speaking of which, any idea about when should we make a release?

It's probably not a bad idea to fix all the easier and less intrusive stuff which is in now in before starting with the heavier stuff. Additionally you name would show up on http://packages.qa.debian.org/a/aptitude.html and people (who don't read Planet Debian ;-) would see that something's going, too.
