Hello,
I've started packaging the next version of FreeMind and, despite my lack of Java knowledge, I've noticed that the new version is coming with quite a lot of standard Java libraries (i.e. libraries already packaged elsewhere in Debian), roughly libcommons-lang-java, librelaxng-datatype-java, libjaxp1.2-java, libbatik-java and possibly a few more. That bloats the whole thing a bit, and is just not 'elegant'.
So, I thought about replacing these bloating libraries through dependencies. Could someone give me a kickstart and tell me if it's feasible and what would be the best method to go further; I'm technical but Java is not my strength.
The packages can be found there:

freemind 0.7.9.rc1-2 freemind-browser 0.7.9.rc1-2 freemind-plugins-help 0.7.9.rc1-2 freemind-plugins-svg 0.7.9.rc1-2 (especially freemind and freemind-plugins-svg)
Thanks, Eric
PS: unrelated feedback is welcomed as well...
