That sounds great. If you browse the archive of debian-java you will find an discussion about the need for a cross-platform java policy of naming etc. This resulted in an ongoing developement of a new Debian Java policy. I am very interested in merging development of this Java policy of packaging (and with me more i guess)... Some items that were discussed: - package naming - jar file naming - jar location - location extracted jar trees - JVM version requirements There are some tools developed to resolve classpaths needed for JVM's and other things that make life for a Java packager easier... I myself developed a tool that outputs the required jar files from a set of jar files which satisfies the "imported" classes in the Java source code... kind regards, Egon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
