Canonical is announcing the availability of PPA: a Launchpad-integrated free service which allows anyone to get 1 GB of space to upload whatever software they want. Launchpad will compile it automatically and will set up an apt repository with your package to anyone who wants to use it. Aditionally, PPAs offer bug reporting and translation services.

Come on, now. Canonical deals with Linux. You can't expect them to cater to every OS out there. They won't even cater to every platform, AFAIK Ubuntu is only available for a handful of architectures (x86, AMD64 and UltraSPARC T1 for the server edition; PC, 64-bit and Mac for the desktop).
