Being a new package, it has to wait for admission into unstable in the
so-called new queue.  This process has to be done manually and takes
rather long at the moment (for example, kernel-source-2.6.7, which was
uploaded at the same time, entered unstable only yesterday, and
kernel-patch-powerpc-2.6.6 took more than a month).

A lot of people feel the same way, according to the recent rants on
debian-devel and even debian-devel-announce.
