+My suggestion would be to look at how Mandriva packages are done, as we<br>
+will probably initially follow their java policy.<br>
+(note that the mandriva java packages do not have the gcj AOT binaries,<br>
+and they are compiled with openjdk on archs were openjdk is available)<br>
+<br>
+I&#39;m not saying that a completely new java packaging policy is not needed<br>
+(it is), though, so if the java developers have the resources to convert<br>
+all imported java packages to a completely new policy, I&#39;m all for it :)<br>
+<br>
+There are around 400 java packages in Mandriva, though I hope we don&#39;t<br>
+need to import all of them (i.e. hopefully many are unused/old).<br>

I would suggest to drop the whole gcj packages, but even it&#39;s unmaintained now by upstream, there are a few programs depending on it (like a few packages of ant i think)<div>
+But writing a policy about the openjdk would be the right thing now because we will integrate it, it&#39;s also in mandriva but without a policy or Remy didn&#39;t find one for that.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Mit freundlichen Grüßen<br>
