I've uploaded ostree to experimental NEW, with both of us in Uploaders.
The packaging repository is in collab-maint:
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/collab-maint/ostree.git
Contributions, changes and co-maintainers welcome.

For now I've set the maintainer to the Utopia team because I'm a member
of that team and not pkg-packagekit, but I'd be happy to hand it over
to any relevant team, as long as I don't end up made responsible for
software I don't use.
It would be nice if the git repo could stay in collab-maint if another
team takes it, rather than requiring special group membership: I'm trying
out an approach inspired by
<https://joeyh.name/blog/entry/ending_the_tyranny_of_unix_permissions/>
for this group of packages.
