That's inappropriate for packages that are potentially useful outside
the context of Debian. I think, from the description, this package
clearly does not qualify to be maintained as a Debian-native package.

See “When to use a native vs a non-native debian package” in the FAQ
<URL:http://people.debian.org/~mpalmer/debian-mentors_FAQ.html#native_vs_non_native>.
