OK, so we should do this.

Nice. Filippo is a good friend. :-)

In the team that's pretty easy.  You just bring in your commits and
usually others are checking and uploading for you.

I'm fine with this if you prefer this.  While as I said you are a member
of the Debian Med team now I do not really mind in what team repository
the package resides.

We are not competing with the DebiChem team about packages and I'm a
member there as well.  Lets just package libodsstream (in whatever team
you prefer) and than we move beads next to libodsstream.
