I raised a bug against libjoptsimple-java to provide maven artifacts that would assist in packaging the latest version of Spring. See [1]. The maintainer is happy for the package to be maintained by the Debian Java group. I just wondered what the process should be to move the existing Git repository from collab-maint to pkg-java? I'm not a DD so I'm guessing I don't have access to make such changes. [1] http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=729687
