Funny you should ask.  I filed an ITP for the Debian A+ package (to be called
aplus-fsf) a couple of weeks ago, and I completed them just in the last few
days.  These are my first Debian packages, so I am getting a Debian developer
to check them out before releasing them publicly, but when they are ready I
will let you know personally.  I fully intend for them to become part of the
Debian woody distribution.

They will not be available for potato - the A+ package does not compile with
the compilers available in potato, as you can see from the current A+ install
instructions for Debian on the A+ website.

The license is GPL, which automatically ensures it adheres to Debian policy.
