Hey Amos, No worries. There are a few ways we can go about it. First...you can always go the route of the App Review Board - http://developer.ubuntu.com/publish/freestable/ has all of the details.
The other way is that I might be able to get it into the software center via partner. Since Scratch is MIT licensed I suggest the app review board first. If that is not working, do let me know and I'll see what I can do to get it in another way. I think this is a great tool for Ubuntu users to have so I'm happy to work with you to find the right way to get it into Ubuntu.
