If you don't want to make and maintain the packages yourself:
You should file a wishlist bug against the wnpp pseudo-package, giving the
proposed name of the package and as much other information as you think is
needed to get a Debian Developer (or other potential packager) interested in
packaging it. Make sure you set the X-DebBugs-Cc: field to
debian-devel@lists.debian.org, so the most people will see it and possibly
be interested.
If you are interested in packaging it yourself:
Spend some time reading up on how to make a package in the New Maintainer's
Corner of http://www.debian.org/devel/, especially the New Maintainers
Guide, Debian Packaging Guide, and, if you can read it without falling
asleep <grin> Debian Policy. Make up a package which installs cleanly on
your system. Put all the parts of the package which would be needed to be
uploaded somewhere on the web, and e-mail this list with the URL where the
files can be obtained, and asking for a sponsor. This is a DD who will
check over your package and, if it is of sufficient quality, will upload it
into the archive on your behalf.
