Hi Markus, tricky question you have there...
My issue is not so much with groovy itself, but rather with its dependencies: looking at the current package, it contains 24 external jars. Quick scan through those lets me think that half of it are not in Debian yet. So here is the deal: - I package groovy under the umbrella of Debian Java Maintainers - you are my sponsor - you don't complain too much if the next version still contains some 12 external jars (first task for me is to check that the licensing is OK) - once FreeMind is back into Debian, I'll package the missing groovy dependencies as time permits (and you are welcome to be my sponsor). Is it a fair offer?
