You may also be interested in
http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/getting-set-up.html since it
will explain how to get the required tools to build your package and as
you carry on through each successive page how to upload your packages
and source to launchpad. I'd think (just an opinion) your best route
would be to host your packages on your launchpad account (You're allowed
2 GB in a public ppa with your personal launchpad account).
