hi,
you put in the current maintainers of the pipelines as upstream authors.
Can you please check with them if this is correct.
So far I know the support for this software is supposed to go over
usd-h...@eso.org
Also its Upstream-Contact not Upstream-Author in the machine readable
copyright format.
Concerning the calibration data, you may be able to save significant amount
of space by compressing them with cfitsio fpack utility. Its usually better
than generic compression methods, at the cost that it can only be read by
cfitsio compatible programs (which is the case for these pipelines).
Regards,
Julian Taylor
PS: I still think these packages are to specific in purpose for Debian, so
this is no offer of sponsorship.
