I've just been looking through my packager-dashboard page.  A
depressingly large chunk of my packages are going to become

there are quite a few non-Java packages involved (due to the parser
generators antlr3 and antlr4-project), primarily OCaml and python
packages.  Mikolaj has a huge pile of work on his shoulders, so don't
take this as criticism of him.

Here are some of the pain points:
- log4j will be retired, which will break ant.
- hamcrest2 will be retired, which will break apache-commons-lang3,
which will break bcel, which will also break ant.
- google-gson and javassist will be retired, which will break
reflections, which will break jna, which is used by about a dozen
packages, including bcel.

I may take these 4

Just to be clear - "hamcrest" is now at version "2.2" and so should replace "hamcrest2".
