I've been thinking about during the weekend. So our company's position is that if the community wants to package for specific distro, that's completely fine by us, but we won't provide support for those packages (as that's the maintainers job). However, I could be willing to volunteer personally to help maintain the Debian package if there's nobody else who could do it. I would do it in my personal capacity and spare time after work.

Debian has this "Maintainer" concept that grants individuals the right to update packages - you need a sponsor for the initial upload but then you can help yourselves https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMaintainer . Debian has a steady influx of new packages https://ircbots.debian.net/stats/ but from what I observe the number of Debian developers is mostly steady https://github.com/jwilk/dd-num-graph, so extra hands are important.
