I contacted Debian earlier this year and made a RFP:

<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=694088>
<http://lists.debian.org/debian-science/2013/01/msg00010.html>

From the informal feedback I got, I'm not persuaded that certain of 
your Debian colleagues value freedom - in the broader sense of the word. 
There is more going on here than meets the eye.

C-Graph is a one-man show with much development on the drawing board. 
I'd rather spend my time hacking than quibbling with Debs who feel that 
not everyone is entitled to freedom.

Interest in the package should also be associated with demand. If 
gNewSense are interested you are likely to get a better response by 
making the request to Debian directly. I hope you do, and that you find 
that GNU C-Graph is a valuable addition to gNewSense. Thank you,

Adrienne
