Good idea :)

Thanks for your offer to join us in maintaining Perl packages.

I've just added you to the perl-team/modules group on Salsa, welcome aboard!

If you haven't done so yet, please take a look at our docs at or linked from
https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianPerlGroup/Welcome
https://perl-team.pages.debian.net/
(especially policy.html and git.html)

For "converting" the packages, dpt-takeover can be helpful, and for
adding them to our salsa repos, please use `dpt salsa pushrepo'. The
other dpt-* tools might be helpful as well :)

Don't hesitate to ask any question on the mailing list or on IRC.


Cheers,
gregor
