Just mail admin@rt.debian.org with "Debian RT" somewhere in the subject.
See http://wiki.debian.org/rt.debian.org and
http://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DSA/RTUsage in particular.

But you'll have to upload the required packages in backports.org as DSA
doesn't like to fetch packages from lenny directly, see for example:
https://rt.debian.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=493
https://rt.debian.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=545

We still have quite a few documents that do not build on etch due
to too old versions of the packages IIRC.

Cheers,
