The other bits are all under DPMT (and it makes sense in this case,
since metakernel has public API and is intended to be imported rather
than used directly).
In any case, it is planned to merge DPMT and PAPT [1], so the distinction is
probably unimportant in the medium term.

I'm not an admin, I'm afraid, so I can't approve the request - but your
mail to the list should be sufficient the next time the admins work
through them.

Yes, I'm willing to review/sponsor. Let me know when they're ready.
