It depends very much on the kind of package. Wether it is something that
is "catchy" or not. Wether it is something a debian developer finds
useful or not.

For example, I would be very reluctant to sponsor a first package of a
person that was a new library without any application using it, whereas
a interesting kde application might easier catch my eye.
