Dear Thomas,

maybe the other team members can correct me, but one reason the packages were
tranferred to GitHub was that we did not realise that the Debian java team had
a Git area on Alioth.  Sorry for this !

Can somebody transfer the package (with full upstream source included and a
pristine-tar branch) as git://git.debian.org/pkg-java/gwt.git ?  Or if you need
some help, please let me know (but remind me also what are the starting points 
as
repositories for the conversion).

About javahelper, I guess that it would be find to convert the package from
CDBS to debhelper, as the CDBS-specific part of debian/rules is quite small.  
Can
another team member confirm ?

Have a nice day, and many thanks for your help !
