Sure, that works too. Don't forget to fix that in the current package
you have on mentors (as well as a few other things which I'll mention
below).

How is this different from gnome-shell-timer, which is already
packaged in debian?

Anyways, here's a quick review of your package:

debian/control:
- Vcs-Browser is present, but not Vcs-Git? Also, ideally your
packaging would be hosted on alioth, although I don't think there's
anything in Policy that prohibits it from being hosted elsewhere.
- Standards version needs a bump to 3.9.5
- Why "Architecture: any" if there aren't any arch-specific files in
your package?
- Description synopsis (the short one-liner) should be <60 chars (Policy 3.4.1)

debian/README.source is empty, just remove it

debian/watch is missing

No need to send it to me directly or cc me; sending mail to any bug
against sponsorship-requests also gets sent to the debian-mentors
mailing list, which I'm subscribed to. I don't particularly care about
this though, so feel free to cc me all you want.

Regards,
Vincent
