I can't speak for the rest but that part doesn't seem correct to me. The XStatic packages are Python packages (as in, dependencies) that the Horizon team is responsible for (when they don't already exist) and maintains on stackforge, so we do have to create them and make sure they all work well together. The later packaging as rpm or deb or others is left to the distro packagers of course. There are instructions already on how to create xstatic packages [1], it's not very complicated and just takes some review time.
