Yes I am. I don't see any RC bugs about my packages :) Find one and I'll
fix it if upstream doesn't (or hasn't).
Sometimes packages are teminally broken (likes jikes 1.16 or 1.17)
in which case it is better to downgrade than upgrade.

PS. If any bugs against my packages bother you very much, tell me
(and why is it critical for you) and I'll see what I can do. The
largest problem for me is time - for next few days I have a large
project to complete.
The only package that I may not be qualified for is Jikes. And that's
because I don't know the internals of JVM and Java opcode...
or *all* the internals of Jikes... I'm thinking of filling a RFA: on
jikes. But it is still better than it being O: like it was
for some time before I picked it up.
