Nope, currently no progress on this. Some person from a university in vienna wanted to contribute this but never did, afaik. > 2.

Looking at the pure sizes it doesnt make sense IMO to put it into separate packges. -java is arch:all, -jni is arch:any. A combined package is arch:any. It needs to be thought about this, but I think its okay. In general FTP-Master dont likes too small binary packages.
