<PRE>Hello,
I am still a padawan packager, but I plan to work on java packages.

That page is clearly outdated, but I think it would be good to have an up-
to-date java policy for Mageia.
I think the main focus should now be openjdk, and gcj should be optional.
It is briefly mentioned in the page you refer to at the section "GCJ and
native code" that gcj AOT libraries could be put in an optional package.
Debian already does this, for example
<A HREF="http://packages.debian.org/lenny/ant">http://packages.debian.org/lenny/ant</A>
<A HREF="http://packages.debian.org/lenny/ant-gcj">http://packages.debian.org/lenny/ant-gcj</A>
So the base package containing the jars can be noarch, and only the optional
*-gcj package is arch specific and requires gcj.
And, as many java programs simply won't work with gcj, those optional
packages would only be provided for programs/libraries that actually work
with gcj.
