FYI: There's a guy who has already done this and hacked a package named smupsd (also based on upsd); it's under the GPL and available at <ftp://cms180.cmsnet.com/pub/smupsd/>. Wouldn't it be better to look at his package (and maybe work together with him)? I couldn't yet try it out because it is in RPM-format and don't have Java installed yet. What about to debianize this package?
