I'd really like to see XeTeX in Debian, it's exciting!  But I fear we
are busy enough with getting TeXlive in good shape, clarifying license
issues, and ideally also a new splitting scheme for teTeX, and I guess
nobody will have much time to package XeTeX.  Unless maybe someone
fond of fonts (Ralf?) uses it himself.

Regards, Frank
