Hi Roman, Yes, there is a chance for your application to go into Debian. You have to find a sponsor (debian-mentors@lists.debian.org and here). I do not have much time at the moment and there are two other java packagers who want to be sponsored before your package. I keep your mail as I do for Jorge Pérez Burgos and Nicolas Duboc and will try to have a look when I'll have some time. Note that there are other debian maintainers who can help...
