If these data structures are distributed just as a set of ml files you can group them and make a single package, maybe asking Jean Cristophe to assign them a global name and distribute as a tarball so that people looking for them on a debian system will have a search key. BTW, Baire [1] is a well known set of data structures which still needs to be packaged in debian. Have you any idea of how Jean Cristophe data structure set compares to Baire? Cheers.
