So, the version of Chuck in Ubuntu comes unmodified from Debian, where
it's maintained by Paul Brossier.
http://packages.qa.debian.org/c/chuck.html

It looks like he hasn't been a particularly active maintainer of it for
the last few years. His last upload was in 2007, and it's been updated
by NMUs ever since.

I suggest you try to get in touch with him, and ask if he will let you
co-maintain it. Debian has strong ownership of packages, and each
package has maintainers who have almost complete authority over it.

As to documentation on the topic
