Hi!
I am one of the users of these packages. I think for now the author
should put them in the unofficial apt sources list available at:
http://www.internatif.org/bortzmeyer/debian/apt-sources/
The upstream author of the package ftp://lml.bas.bg/home/anton/ is also
Debian user and probably he would like to be a maintainer or find a
sponsor. I think this depends on his free time.
