Hi, I am Robert Schuster and the company I am working for is interested in getting their Java applications packaged for Debian (and derivates :)) - including all of their own and the 3rd party dependencies.
Besides this being my job I am personally interested in doing this because I like contributing to free software projects. The applications use a lot of Apache, Eclipse, Codehaus, ... libraries. Many of them are already in Debian. Thank you very much!!! I am going to package the rest and would like to see them going (at least) into pkg-java's SVN repository. If you let them into Debian that would be fantastic. :) For the applications and their in-house dependencies I will set up a depot on my own. Although they are free software I am not the one to decide whether and how this stuff is published. Perhaps this will clear up in the following months. Ah yes. I have just begun doing Debian packaging. Although I can get things to work already expect that I do silly things only newbies. However I am open for criticism. :) Anyway this mail has the purpose of explaining why I am going to post a lot of stuff in the next days, weeks and (hopefully) months.
