With Debian Testing frozen for the Squeeze release, it is very unlikely to enter Unstable (Unstable is the normal entry point for Testing). Someone who is familiar with the packages would need to evaluate their maturity for an Ubuntu release and if they were ready, request the freeze exception so that they could be sync'ed from Experimental. If that is done, then they could be backported to 10.04. Backports process is deescribed in [2].
