If you are a member of Debian, you have access to people.debian.org,
whether you are a developer or a non-uploading member. I guess you are
talking about people who are not members of Debian? If so, IIRC the
proposed PPA system is not for people who are not members of Debian
(except via sponsorship).

You can upload to mentors without sending binary packages, in fact
mentors ignores any binary packages (except it checks them with
lintian).

Why is a service needed? Everyone who has a computer should be able to
install a Debian chroot or VM, build there, test the resulting
packages etc and publish them on their website.
The only thing a service would be needed for is non-x86 architectures AFAICT.
