I managed to solve this problem, the last command I entered was:

dput ppa:grass/grass-stable ../grass70_7.0.0RC2-1_source.changes

it seems to be OK

Uploading to ppa (via ftp to ppa.launchpad.net):
  Uploading grass70_7.0.0RC2-1.dsc: done.
  Uploading grass70_7.0.0RC2-1.tar.gz: done.
  Uploading grass70_7.0.0RC2-1_source.changes: done.

But I cannot find at Launchpad [1] any "button" where I could launch
building process...

Thanks again for the patience (being debian user who has no experience
with creating packages)! Martin
