You are right about the Brazil project just looked at sunsource.net, and its
under 'Projects that are currently available for parcipation'???
But its a research-project so I can understand why they don't want to have
an open Development forum.

However seeing that they have released Jxta under a license similar to ASF
License (only difference is that references to ASF is changed to Sun)
I realise that that they must have some sense after all.
