The issue here was bureaucracy. Some miscommunication with several people saying "you need to ask someone else". I have complained about this to some FSF people and hopefully this won't happen anymore in the future. But please remember we are all just human and there are a lot of people contacting the FSF each and every day. Normally when someone suggest that code can be included into an existing GNU project there normally isn't much discussion if the maintainer thinks that is a good idea. Discussion can happen about the need for a new GNU project. There is an official GNU project evaluation process for that. So if someone wants to contribute some code or a subproject to the GNU Classpath project please also CC me then I can help make sure that such a request doesn't disappear in some internal RT request queue forwarding cycle at the FSF office. Cheers, Mark
