It is quite possible that everything will be deleted and reimported
again. I didn't follow all the discussions. We can also do a first
upload outside the team and then migrate in the team once things are
settled.

OK, the interface was too similar to GitHub but not enough on this
point. ;-)

Everything looks good except the LICENSE.txt which is not here. It is in
fact called LICENSE upstream and it should be added to the manifest to
be present in the tarball. A note to upstream would be nice. Add a
comment to debian/copyright pointing to the appropriate URL to find the
license. As it is present in debian/copyright, you don't have to add a
special patch or anything like that.
