You seem to believe that I was a sort of dictator (nominated by who, BTW?) who had the power to decide what goes or does not go into Debian. If you think so, may I suggest that you understood nothing about the way Debian (or any volunteer effort) works? Go ahead, stop whining, package Java2 and try to upload it. I never had the power to block it. Sun's lawyers have it. And the Debian FTPmaster also has, too, because he is officially in charge (I never was) of preventing illegal packages to be distributed in Debian (because carelessness of one packager could endanger the whole Debian project if Sun sues us). So, if you think I had any power, go ahead, take it. Disclaimer: do not tell I didn't warn you.
