Hi,
hope this is OK to reply-to-all in such cases...

Have you tried to compile/run freemind with any of the available DFSG-free JREs so far?
It would be a pleasure, I just need to find a key signer nearby. Anybody living around BÃblingen (or Stuttgart)?
I'm not yet a Debian developer, going through the documentation and the process of becoming one.
Recently I spent a few hours on creating a freemind package myself, since I hadn't seen the links to your package so far. If you want, I'll be happy to sponsor your package.
So, what would be the next steps? Remember: I'm still going through the documentation (and I didn't think it would be so quick to get a sponsor :-) ).
Thanks, Eric
Cheers, -Hilko
