I'm just a casual contributor to some Apache projects, not an open source guru. Maybe you confused the ASF with the FSF? > Furthermore, you’re a Debian Developer¹.

I made this suggestion because: - I happen to maintain java-package - The Oracle JRE consists in 99% of open source code. - This alternative is possible from a technical point of view. I'm not to judge its morality, Andreas can decide himself if it suits his ethic and needs. - As far as I know mentioning contrib/non-free packages on the Debian mailing lists isn't forbidden. Note that I'm not arguing against rebuilding Doko's openjdk package, which is indeed remarkable for its portability. But maybe Andreas needs a quick solution and prefers avoiding the long compilation time of OpenJDK. > No ad-hominem intended You are just stating I'm a bad DD that should go back to school, I've seen better praises ;) Emmanuel Bourg
