Autobuilder doesn't use .changes at all It needs only sources, so .dsc is enough for it. If it's not convenient for you to use web assistant I can just increase timeout. Another way is to change dput. Which dput version do you use, BTW? And last solution is to use scp instead of dput. If you're interested I can show my upload script. It's simple and ugly, but it works for me for a long time.
