Stephen,
    Thanks much, I have pulled down the 2.0.2 stuff from your site and
will start with that.  Once you are freed up again, drop us a line at
the Debian Java Packaging Project; we'd gladly welcome your
participation.  Best wishes on the thesis.  I am copy the Debain Java
Maintainers list so that they know what we have discussed.

Regards,
