Providing debs of Chromium is like providing debs of Enlightenment's
DR17 branch: Its out of date by the time the package is built. 

For Chrome I can understand as the Chrome release cycle is on par with
most others -- about 4 months per release with at least a modicum of
stability. the problem is that with Chromium you are never guaranteed
stability in any form.

As much as I like chromium (I use it as my default browser on Windows
and Linux, and soon on Mac too) the release cycle is too fast to allow
for appropriate packaging given the speed of Debian packaging.
