Well, mh_make just does maven packages, whereas jh_makepkg (was intended) to
cover all the common options. Perhaps they should be merged, but that's up to
the mh folks. Only having mh_make would be sad, I think.

I wasn't aware (forgot) about jh_makepkg and just had a look at it. I don't 
think we should have 2 dh-make-* style programs in the java team: jh_makepkg 
and mh_make. It's already enough logic duplication between dh-make, dh-make-
perl, dh-make-php, dh-make-drupal, gem2deb, python-stdeb, haskell-devscripts, 
...

We might be the only language team that does not use its own programming 
language for this kind of tool. While I'm more fluent in Python, it might be 
better to converge on Perl as much of javahelper is already written in Perl.

Niels: What are your plans for the jh_makepkg rewrite?
