The CJAR has the ambitious goal of becoming The Java Repository and therefore it depends on community acceptance, transparency and feature completeness. Please look at the beta, try to use it, and send us feedback so we can improve the tool and it can better serve Java community at large. You are welcome to use form in the CJAR http://area51.sourcelabs.com/cjar/app?page=FeedbackForm&service=external or send us email, or edit SWIK pages, whichever is convenient for you.
