Hi Trent (sorry missing out on your mail) and Rhonda,

Gerardo Curiel's work on 3.8 packaging is available in our SVN repository:

 http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-request-tracker/packages/request-tracker3.8/trunk/debian/
 svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-request-tracker/packages/request-tracker3.8/trunk/debian/
 
Andrew Ruthven has made Debian packages available, as seen in 

 http://lists.bestpractical.com/pipermail/rt-users/2008-August/053345.html

I'm not sure how much Gerardo and Andrew have joined their efforts, Cc'ing
them. Andrew, you'd naturally be very welcome in the pkg-request-tracker
group.  Please let us know if you want to get involved.

I think what's most needed now is a DD to get the first version in
experimental. I'm overworked myself. Rhonda and Dom, help would be
appreciated.

Cc'ing the ITP, #492939.
