That's a great suggestion, I'll ask the team which method they prefer
for handling that situation and update it asap.

Yea, ppa.mmogp.com is free and open source, but it is something I
created preemptively - I'll give ssh access to any Debian contributor
who would like to help maintain the Debian apt repo, but a majority of
the team is not interested in it - and would not recommend it - the last
I asked anyway.
I believe there are plans for a more official private repo, or to use a
backports repository - either way the team is planning to get the stack
into Debian as officially as possible in due time.
We do have a site [1] which links to a few different places of interest
- such as our wiki [2], which does have a guide [3], that does mention
ppa.mmogp.com:
[1] http://debian-ha.alioth.debian.org
[2] wiki.debian.org/Debian-HA
[3] https://wiki.debian.org/Debian-HA/ClustersFromScratch
Hope that helps, and glad you made some head-way!
Best regards,
