Great - I have built and uploaded the package to DELAYED-5.  That will
give you a bit of time to look at it and let me know if you'd like it
removed from the upload queue.  I'll be traveling some over the weekend,
but will check mail when possible (and in plenty of time to cut the
upload if you're not happy with it).

The packaging would be pulled into either a git or svn repository
(preferably git) and then added to the pkg-java repository where members
of the Java team would have write access to the packaging repo.  You
would be listed as an Uploader, but as the maintainer all members of the
Java team would be copied on bug reports, etc.

Cheers,
