The standard virtual-package-names-list.text.gz is located in /usr/doc
and found in the package debian-policy, of course. 

Ew, I just noticed that that file has it's own changelog.  It should
probably either have a separate changelog or else just have it's
changelog be part of the debian-policy changelog.

Anyhow, back on the subject.  This must be the paragraph of which
Christian spoke:

3. Mail the maintainer of the virtual package name list (Christian
   Schwarz <schwarz@debian.org>) notifying him of the consensus reached (or
   your suggestions if noone objected).  Please include a proposed brief
   description of the new virtual name(s) for the list.  The list
   maintainer will then post the new list to debian-devel and upload it
   to the FTP site.

This email address should be changed to either a new virtual mail
address (i.e., <virtual-packages@debian.org>) or to Debian Policy
<debian-policy@lists.debian.org>).
