As for sponsoring:  If you have a sponsor that's fine.  If you want me
to sponsor your package I would do this from the Git repository.
Unfortunately your repository layout is different from what is used in
all teams I know.  You are using branches for releases instead of tags.
That's very unusual.

Sounds good.

Thanks for your work on this
