At least the original owner of #760485 seems to be the same person that is
currently active and in Uploaders at
https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/debian/control
Best will be to ask him directly why he didn't push to get the packages into
Debian main. I have added him on CC.

This list is for responding to all kinds of packaging questions, probably best
to subscribe.
