Thanks for considering maintaining those new packages into the team.
About the debian-sid scheme for git branches, last time I asked (end of
June 2013, early July 2014), I had not been convinced that was more of a
personal preference of the initial drafters of the current policy. I
don’t use it myself (nor do I impose an export-dir) in the packages I’ve
introduced, as I prefer the default gbp layout (for multiple reasons,
including an out of the box support of any third party tools, e.g.
debi), and I would certainly not enforce anyone to do use the debian-sid
scheme. Of course, other people may have a different view (and so
another sponsor may impose their view), but I’d prefer if technical
decision that differ from the default were based on technical facts
rather than personal preferences.

Regards

David
