I'm having the same question/request. I'm using statsd in production and
I'm in need of a Debian package for that. 

There is quite a bit of development going on in the upstream github
repository for Debian packaging, see
https://github.com/etsy/statsd/tree/master/debian . The package is not
perfectly up to Debian's standards, but works quite well and the few
remaining issues could easily be fixed. I have CCed the most recent
authors in that directory, I think some collaboration between Debian and
the upstream repository would help a lot.

How can we proceed with this ITP? Can I help in any way? Unfortunately
I'm not a DD (just a DM), so I cannot sponsor any work on this package.
