Not really. We just try to avoid adding new packages unless it is needed |
| 11 |
to resolve packed jar issues with existing applications for example. |
| 12 |
This is because we are understaffed at the moment. We should have more |
| 13 |
time to look at new packages after we get the axxo overlay merged. If |
| 14 |
you are interested in helping in the long term, I and other java |
| 15 |
developers are more than willing to help you towards becoming a |
| 16 |
developer some day. You can reach me on #gentoo-java@freenode if you |
| 17 |
want to talk more about this. I will see what I can do about adding |
| 18 |
those ebuilds to experimental at least. |
