That would be great! It would be best to have someone from the Java Team
review/sponsor but, if none of them are available, I am willing to do that.

Thanks for doing that extra check and good to know! The fork (as well as
the line vs character thing) would probably be good to mention in the
package description so it's clear for everyone. I'd also consider adding
the "google" at the front of the package name (or something else) to easily
distinguish it from the one already in the repository and prevent confusion
from users.
