Note that MetaCarta has nothing to do with the Debian packaging of any
of these applications. (Other than, I suppose, that they supply my email
hosting.) If your statement is "I hope that Upstream would maintain
these packages", yes, that's why I've been creating them and listing
myself as maintainer.  The creation of these packages is how I spent my
end of year vaccation time.
