Deal is still not finalized (some pending legal stuff about whether they 
make business with me as a preson or my one-man company) but looks 
optimistic.

I am in good dialogue especially with Scott Draves - the main author of 
Beaker Notebook and contact at their end for this packaging task.

Sadly noone volunteered for that first and most simple task of filing 
the bugreports for the pieces I had listed with Homepage URL.  I have 
now completed that on my own.

Help is still needed by skilled Debian packagers interested in (not only 
packaging but) maintaining(!) some of the dependencies: Look at either 
https://wiki.debian.org/ShowMeBox/Packages or the dependency links at 
the top of https://bugs.debian.org/795980 for pending packaging tasks.

Please also join this list if you choose to get involved, to coordinate 
our efforts.

I hate working by a clock, so have put on hold to measure my time until 
there are any others wanting to share the (possible!) payment.
