Automatic import from debian package not found in Ubuntu

Hello

I am a Debian maintainer, working on the mess package which sits in 
non-free in Debian ( the Mame license does not allow commercial use of 
the software, for the rest it is BSD )

I would have tought according to 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebianImportFreeze, that the package would 
automatically end up in Quantal, as it was accepted in Debian Testing in 
December 2011.

But the DebianImportFreeze date is gone, and I find no trace of it in 
the Quantal packages using rmadison.

Is it because the package sits in the non-free section of the Debian 
Archive ? Is to possible to ask for the package to be imported ? Am I 
missing something ?

Greetings

Emmanuel
