One possibility is to continue with the packaging but to submit to

there is (almost) no difference between a package for main or for
non-free ...
Normally, the salsa packages have 'unstable' in the changelog, which
then get promoted to 'stable' by the sponsor.
... no, you (or your sponsor) always uploads to unstable ...
Should I simply note 'non-free' in the changelog to upload to non-free?
... no, you push a package to non-free by adding non-free to the
Section: in your debian/control. Please have a look for example at [1].
The other difference is, that there are no buildd, so you need to
manually upload binary packages for all the needed architectures.
