Looks good to me. I don't entirely understand what's going on in
debian/rules yet, so I'll have to take some time to look it over. Is
there any good, comprehensive, documentation on python3 packaging? I
can't seem to find anything. 

Also, is there a reason you aren't including the documentation in a
python-itsdangerous-doc package? Is that not generally done with python
modules?

I've got no problem with you uploading it. Would you mind adding that it
closes bug #714353 [0] to the changelog?

Thanks,
