The major work is essentially equivalent to a rewrite (of the packaging). Different jdk, build system, update management, policy, etc etc. Pretty much the only things left will be the boilerplate (debian/copyright files and such). Removing the eclipse 3.2 from the archive would be fine with me, fwiw, especially if it motivates anyone to contribute towards getting 3.5 in. _______________________________________________ pkg-java-maintainers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-java-maintainers
