JDK is GPL now! a package in main requested

[Burak Emir <Burak.Emir@epfl.ch>]

Hello dear debian-java list members,

After hearing the good news that Sun GPLs its jdk today, when can we  
expect a package in main?

Would it replace the sun-java5-jdk  and sun-java5-bin packages in non- 
free?

Would the existing packages be moved to main? I guess this would  
depend on Java applying gpl also to version 5 (i.e. 1.5, sic) of  
java, but I do not know whether that's the case -- for the moment,  
the website still shows the prohibitive Sun License, but maybe this  
might be changed during the day.

I asked Javier Fernandez-Sanguino, maintainer of the java debian FAQ  
directed me here. He asks to be mailed the patches to the java debian  
FAQ through the bts if you should move the packages to main.

Thanks + keep up the good work.

Burak
