It's never too late to learn The Art of Packaging :))

I think you have to fill a RFP (Request For Package) bugs against
wnpp: if you use reportbugs wnpp from your console, you'll be
presented to a menu where to choose RFP and then a template to fill.
When someone willing to package that tool see the but, will usually
rename it to ITP (Intent To Package) and the travel have a
beginning...

Best Wishes,
Sandro
