The inclusion of a package into Debian depends only on one maintainer packaging the software and uploading it. There is no central decision or vote to include or reject a package. Therefore, you have to find a volunteer (any Debian maintainer, they are several hundreds). Asking on debian-devel is a good idea, just be sure you include the licence and the address to download your software.
