OK I do have sponsor for my CDBS package only that I didn't  drag him in
because as you said I misunderstood things.

Oh no I do have sponsor but I thought if some one from the team could
sponsor it would be great but anyway the sponsor I have is bit busy
these days (and yes its Jonas who actually is also developer of CDBS).

Its not that I only know CDBS, I started from dh but then learnt CDBS
and I like it now that is the whole reason I changed to CDBS because I'm
comfortable with it.

I can convert the package it to dh not a problem, just for the sake of
the package but let me see, converting means redoing all things I've
done already and I'm really not having enough free time to do it because
of other backlogs. But if I get some free time I will consider it.
