Uhhm, have you not noticed, that mc has been in Base:System (the most
basic part of openSUSE) for YEARS? Actually, ISTR, it got moved from
some other project (Gnome?) into Base:System! That's how important mc
is to people doing the grunt work, they want it in the _basic system_!)

So, don't worry about packaging mc for SUSE/SLE, that's all covered.

I think, the mc site could/should link to

    http://software.opensuse.org/package/mc

for openSUSE/SLE, Laurent's Fedora/RHEL/CentOS packages, add other
sources for packages. BTW: As far as I've seen, nobody built
Debian/Ubuntu or Arch packages on the OBS yet though.

And don't worry about providing packages for openSUSE/SLE, they're
already there for the "supported" versions and provided (often by the
(ex-)package-maintainers themselves) also for out-of-support versions.
