I've accepted your Alioth join request.

So you only plan to upload to backports..? If you upload to unstable,
please note that the mysql-5.6 source is missing some important
packaging changes done in mysql-5.7 for Debian unstable (split to
mysql-defaults etc) and anyway uploading mysql-5.6 to unstable anymore
is not recommended, as mysql-5.7 is about to overtake it.
