Remember that you have to upload your package to the repositories in debian, 
and even if the license is okay, you have to make it past the ftpmasters. They 
frown on NMUs and hijacked packages in certain circumstances. The best thing to 
do is to solve problems between packagers _before_ the package hits the repos.
