I don't think they'll be ready to move to main before Sarge.
This would be great, but as you say, from a pragmatic point of view, the best that can be achieved for sarge itself seems to be packages in contrib for use with java-package generated non-free JVM's. > Maybe we can deliver a delayed SarJe: Sarge with free java when every > free java virtual machines/compiler will be ready and when a lot of > package will move to main. An etch release in early 2006 would be just as good :), and much easier. Of course, backports.org style packages for sarge when the java packages (kaffe!) are ready are also an option, but only if people want to invest time. > Second, I don't have the time to work a lot on the MovingJavaToMain > project at the moment.
