An exact date is hard to give. Coding is finished and it's running for a 
while now. I now need to update the Virtual Appliance (which will be 
using Ubuntu 12.04) for VMware, Hyoer-V etc. and update the RPM packages 
and test the RPMs on various RedHat/CentOS installs. If you are 
interested I can give you a pre-release version of the Debian packages 
sooner?

One "problem" with supporting OpenJDK6 and OpenJDK7 is that I need to 
change the dependency on a java package:

Currently it's:

openjdk-6-jre, openjdk-6-jre-headless

Afaik I cannot specify an either openjdk-6-jre or openjdk-7-jre 
dependency. I can see two options:

1. use java6-runtime for the depence. The openjdk-6-jre and 
openjdk-7-jre package both provide these dependencies

2. Create two meta-packages, djigzo-openjdk-6 and djigzo-openjdk-7

What I like about option 1 is that it works for all java runtimes. 
However, the downside is that in principle you can install a different 
Java version which *might* be incompatible.

Option 2 requires me to create additional packages which I do not prefer.

Kind regards,

Martijn Brinkers
