I've checked and the current Standards-Version is the latest: 4.0.0

The watch file is working now. I uploaded the package to debian/mentors again after these changes.
 

Thanks,

Hi Rodrigo,

I do not intend to sponsor this package but I'm just willing to help.

Be careful to target "Package: sponsorship-request*s*" : the bug as been
properly re-assigned to "sponsorship-requests", but it didn't reach the
mentors audience as I can tell.

I didn't check deep but I can see that the packaging is not following
the latest policy manual (newer-standards-version) : have a look to this
document (
https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/upgrading-checklist.txt )
to fix this ; https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Standards-Version
Also, could you make the debian/watch file work please ?
Thanks,

F.
