Hello,

I have downloaded the latest upstream release, 1.3.2, from 2012 and it
contains 12 files which are covered by the non-free JSON license. I have
not tested if libjson-simple-java can replace all of them. Given the
fact that jspwiki is the only reverse-dependency, which is also
RC-buggy, I would rather recommend to remove both packages from Debian.
The required time to make both packages free is better spent elsewhere.

However if you are really interested in jabsorb, you could give it a try
yourself. I am sure someone would sponsor your package, if the package
could go into the main archive.

Regards,

Markus
