I don't have any specific experience with getting apache projects into linux distro's, however I have in the past done some package management for RedHat and Fedora.
The answer is usually pretty simple: Package it in the distro's format (deb, rpm, etc) following the guidelines of that distro, and submit it following their guidelines, for instance for Fedora that would be: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Join After the package is reviewed and approved, your now the official 'packages maintainer' for that package. The alternative is to try to get someone else excited enough to do the above work for you :) (either project members or by asking on the mailing lists of the distro's).
