  Unfortunately Debian RFPs generally don't work, unless an existing Debian contributor sees it and also has a need for the project.

    Nothing prevents the ECharts project developers themselves to package Echarts and contributing the package to Debian, either by being sponsored by existing Debian Developers, or possibly becoming Debian Maintainers themselves, allowing them to upload a new package at any time without going through anyone else.

      True, but it is unlikely they would work on that. Usually upstream developers prefer people to not use distros to get binaries of their code. They already have an npm package and suggest people use it, there isn't much point additional external packaging systems after that. Also, packaging JavaScript/TypeScript stuff for Debian isn't trivial due to the volume of dependency packages that are typically not yet packaged, and other issues. https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript
