Hi Tobias, you can register an account on alioth.debian.org and request to join the team on this site: (bottom right) https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-java/ You should also read http://mentors.debian.net/intro-maintainers You don't need to file RFS (request for sponsorship) bug reports, if you are looking for someone to upload your package. Just ask on debian-java. Please subscribe to the list, if you haven't done so already. Maven based packages are rather simple, for instance take a look at undertow: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-java/undertow.git/tree/debian debian/rules: These lines are usually sufficient. #!/usr/bin/make -f %: dh $@ --parallel --buildsystem=maven debian/control is pretty self-explanatory and you just need to adapt it to your package. The maven.* files might confuse you in the beginning but they are simply there to rewrite artifact and group ids and version numbers to match those in Debian's archive. I recommend to use Debian Sid for development and to install build-essential and maven-debian-helper. The latter contains a helper script called mh_make. cd to your package root directory where your pom.xml file is located and run "mh_make". It will ask a couple of questions and hopefully create an initial Debian directory. So far Markus
