Giving that even the Sage developers probably want those patches to eventually be incorporated upstream (or you would have to keep maintaining all those spkg's forever), it is indeed a very good start to just make a web page with all the patches that Sage requires. That will also make it much easier to judge how hard it is to package for debian/ubuntu.
