A few extra items:

0: lintian auto-rejection may need to be modified for Emdebian Grip
uploads. I have a lintian profile which I've been using with Emdebian
packages :
# The default profile for Emdebian Grip
Profile: emdebian-grip/main
Extends: debian/main
Disable-Tags: debian-changelog-file-missing,
 copyright-file-compressed,
 copyright-without-copyright-notice,
 description-contains-invalid-control-statement,
 binary-without-manpage,
 md5sums-lists-nonexisting-file,
 file-missing-in-md5sums,
 no-upstream-changelog,
 no-homepage-field

1: Uploads to the Emdebian Grip suites/queues need to be restricted to
blavet.debian.org only. Maintainers must not be able to upload directly
to the Emdebian Grip suites by mistake. (I can easily make the upload
use SSH instead of ftp if that helps with this restriction.)
Restricting uploads via the Emdebian signing key will work for binary
uploads but the original signature on the .dsc is unchanged (because
re-signing it causes changes within the dsc which would cause
collisions because the filename has not changed).
