Okay. I have created Debian packaging for ‘bzr-colo’, and:

I've set the package maintainer to “Debian Bazaar Maintainers
<pkg-bazaar-maint at lists.alioth.debian.org>”.

Please note that I've gone no further than making what I think is a good
Debian package, and inspecting the result built from a ‘pbuilder’
environment. I have not, for example, installed the package nor tried to
use ‘bzr-colo’.

The packaging files are under Bazaar branch
<URL:http://bzr.debian.org/bzr/collab-maint/bzr-colo/bzr-colo.debian/>.
Feel free to contact me off-list with requests or to let me know it's
taken out of my hands :-)
