Hello: Fellow Java users;

As the subject heading shows what is the current status of the wiki, and the 
debain-java FAQ?

After following this list a little bit, and trying to read up on the state of 
java in debian, I am left with more questions then answers. I have managed to 
find a few good sources of information, with google and everything else, but 
searching google groups for good information, is only turning up information 
that is a few years old.

For example going to the wiki, it lists a few urls, which seem to be a good 
starting place, but lacks more detailed information. I did see that the roadmap 
was concerned about the FAQ, and some other important details.
http://java.debian.net/

I did find a most usefull url from a page that was out dated, when I installed 
jave the first time.

http://wiki.osuosl.org/display/DEV/Java+on+Debian
http://serios.net/content/debian/java/

This url is very good, my hats off to all those involved in its design, and 
upkeep. Something like that should be considered for the FAQ.

In my various searches it would be kind of handy to have some information about 
the different IDE's that are available for java, such as BlueJ, JDEE, Eclipse, 
... etc. I did find this page that describes a few ide's for Gnu_Linux in 
general, that might be useful.

Even in most books about java, it does not list debuggers or other tools that 
help in the development of programs.

For example I was unaware that one could use gdb to debug java, I do believe 
that someone on this list might of talked about that a little while ago.

http://gcc.gnu.org/java/gdb.html

I am aware that JDEE, or JDE in the debian archive, shouldn't this be named 
JDEE in keeping with upstream instead of jde? Should a bug report be filed, if 
one wants to use this packages.

It would also me helpful for a discussion on various jvm's and their limits 
from a user or programmer prespective. I would be more than willing to help out 
if I could, Since I do not know where, or who to contact to help fix the Wiki, 
or even to help update the FAQ,I thought this would be a good starting place.
