Splendid. I suspected it would but was just checking.

I got the acceptance notification, so see things have happened nice and
quickly, thanks for responding to my email promptly.
Sending in notes as I did is the trivial bit, it is you people doing
that packaging that do the hard work, thanks for undertaking it.
The JVM eco-system seems to be hard one to handle in Debian -- I guess
because of the "jar hell" problem. Presumably this will only get worse
as OSGi and/or Project Jigsaw go into real production so that it is
possible, indeed required, to have multiple versions of jars all loaded
at once. I assume all the JVM-related packages will have to head
towards being packaged with their version number in the name as GCC is?
