Bug#290228: why is ant in contrib ?

[Vincent Fourmond]

Package: ant
Severity: normal


  Hello !

  I was wondering why ant is in contrib. True enough, it can depend on sun or blackdown java. Still, 
it does work fine with kaffe, which is purely free software !

  My guess is that it should live in main, along with it's doc. What do you think about it ??
