Could I publish Komodo Edit packages on PPA repositoris of Ubuntu?

According to PPA terms and conditions, CC-BY-SA softwares accepted (and some other licenses!). And according to Komodo Edit license, it has CC-BY-NC-SA license. Now, can I create deb packages of Komodo Edit?

And, is this important if I name it Komodo Edit or Open Komodo? Which one is better?

We're happy to have people making Linux packages of Komodo Edit, but I should clarify how it's licensed:

The CC-BY-NC-SA license covers the Komodo documentation only:

http://svn.openkomodo.com/openkomodo/view/komododoc/trunk/LICENSE.txt

Open Komodo (the project that Komodo Edit is built from) is under the Mozilla Public Licence:

http://svn.openkomodo.com/openkomodo/view/openkomodo/trunk/LICENSE.txt

http://www.mozilla.org/MPL/

I think naming the package "Komodo Edit" would be best.

Any news about an Ubuntu package? I'm really interested.

No, no news :(
I'm a little busy these days.
