The document mentioned above explains it in detail, but most likely no, you don't need that. > Do I need to become a Debian maintainer and upload the package to > mentors.debian.net? The document mentioned above explains that too. You probably want to get it uploaded to mentors.debian.net so that it's easy for someone to review and upload your package for you. You can become the maintainer of a bunch of packages and not be a Debian maintainer. Or you may want to apply for the Debian maintainer role in the future when you're more used to the system and want to help out.
