Packaging new software

[Hannie Dumoleyn]

Five months ago, I asked on developer.ubuntu.com to add the Dutch 
translation of The Ubuntu Manual "Getting started with Ubuntu" to the 
Software Center.
See: https://myapps.developer.ubuntu.com/dev/apps/2076/
Three months ago I asked why it had not been done yet and got the 
following advice:
the way to get your package published in the Software Center is by going 
through the traditional MOTU process. On 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment/NewPackages#Going_through_MOTU 
I see this:
New MOTU contributors (who are not members of the MOTU 
<https://launchpad.net/%7Emotu> team yet), need to get their packages 
reviewed and signed off by two MOTUs (core-devs are included in this) 
<https://launchpad.net/%7Emotu/+members> to get them uploaded to Ubuntu.
Does this mean I have to package it myself before asking two motus to 
get it uploaded?
I am currently trying to learn how to package, create a PPA and upload 
to the PPA. I still have a few questions about that, which I will post 
to this list in a separate email.
Thanks for helping me to get the ubuntu manual (Dutch translation) in USC.
