[gentoo-java] Programming projects for people who want to contribute to improving Java on Gentoo

[Petteri Räty]

We get a lot of people wanting to contribute so let's see if someone on
the mailing list is interested in attacking one of the following problems:

1. A tool to automatically find targets from build.xml files. This is
basically done by checking which targets run javadoc, junit, jar etc.

2. Port the maven patches from JPackage to Gentoo.

3. Write a GUI configuration tool for Java on Gentoo
To for example configure jdk or java options per application

Just contact me (betelgeuse) on #gentoo-java in Freenode and I can give
you the more info/specs on howto implement these. Of course we still
need more people doing the ebuild maintenance too.

Petteri
