I didn't realize that I was supposed to alter the title of the RFP bug and change it to ITP. I've done that now. Perhaps there's more documentation for me to read that I've missed. I have in fact talked to the people who've commented on that bug already. Oliver initially expressed interest in packaging Slony-I, but hasn't had the time to do it. At least, that's the last thing I've heard from him on the subject (in February 2005 I believe). Also, I had absolutely no way of knowing that the CVS version had already been packaged. Were you intending on packaging Slony-I for Debian? I don't want to try and duplicate someone else's work here. If you or someone else wants to do this then let me know. By the way, the upstream debian directory is my work. Is there a reason why you don't think it should exist? The intention was that it would make it easier for users to build their own packages until there's an official Debian package available.

Additionally, there's already an RFP bug on it which you could have changed the title on, etc, and talked to the people who've commented on that bug already. Additionally, the CVS version of it's already been packaged actually, there's some packages at http://kenobi.snowman.net/~sfrost/slony. I've got some better and more recent ones than that (which I think are a fair bit better than what's in the Slony CVS upstream debian/ directory which I personally don't think should even exist) but Slony upstream asked that we not put a CVS release into a released version of Debian and that means holding off on actually uploading the package until Slony 1.1 is officially released or filing annoying RC bugs and whatnot against a CVS upload to keep it out of sarge.
