Just a hint: If you want to do anything for Debian, you don't require to
be an "official developer". 

Just take a look into the Bug Tracking System, fix some bugs and send the
patches to the maintainers.

If you do so, you learn much about the debian packaging system and if you 
tell that the New-Maintainers-Managers they normally will accept your
application *really* fast (not by policy but according to what people say).

bye,
