I think this could have been better communicated. I was the one who
split libequinox-osgi-java off from Eclipse. Why can't we just use the
existing package and update it accordingly? In any case giving a reason
for a package takeover by another package even for team-maintained
packages seems appropriate to me. A bug report would have been ideal for
this sort of discussion.

Regards,

Markus
