Because it was meant for every package and I only talk about keywording ~amd64, not stabling. The latter is handled by the team in a timely manner, but keywording is put aside (it leads to even more stabling, once it is keyworded). Java was only mentioned, as they came up with an idea to help amd64 in special and arch teams in general. V-Li
