No problem.  Just try to find somebody for all your packages
on debian-mentor or debian-devel.  If you can't find some sponsor
I would volunteer do sponsor at least the packages which are interesting
for Debian-Med (sorry I'm to overloaded with Debian-Med to care for
more than this).

Just talk with your sponsor and upstream whether it might make sense
to wait for the free version or of you intend the non-free -> main move
later on.  Just tell me once it is reade to include it into the
apropriate med-bio* package.

Thanks for supporting Debian
