there is no special reason, I just started last year the packaging and
wanted the repo putting in some "official" place to let other see the
current state. But I wanted be able to rebase and push my work without
any take care for on person depended on a repository in a more public
place like Alioth.

Once the package is accepted it will move to Alioth.

I know this circumstance, but thanks for hinting.

A backport is heavily depending on entering the testing release, so I
still don't care much about it in the current state. But as you wrote
it's more a question of the chroot to build a backport package. Right
know I would be happy to get the connector into testing before the freeze.
