Thanks for the clarification Gianfranco, just before you sent this email
Arturo gave me commit rights to the repo and said i should first contribute
to the package before become uploader.

Thanks a lot Arturo, as you may have already seen, i pushed 7 commits some
days ago. I won't add myself to the uploaders, i will wait for your ok.
Having commit rights makes it easier to help packaging, if i end up doing
some changes that i think might need approval or discussion before
commiting, i will work on another branch and then ask for review.

Regards,
