Since openjdk has so many lists, the one you are looking for is: http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/distro-pkg-dev Or in gmane start with this thread: http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.openjdk.distro-packaging.devel/5 Only bootstraps on Fedora 7 for now, but we are making (very) slow progress to get things to build fully on Debian also.
