I am and I was planning to communicate on this project if/once it was
accepted.
Since most (all) of the work has been already done, the work will be:
* apply the patches to the VCS
* ping DD (mostly me) to do the team upload/NMU
* launch a full rebuild with AWS to check it is OK
* fix the remaining bugs
After that, which should not take very long, I have several things in mind:
* Draft of the packaging of openjdk 8 (of course, this would be done in
coordination with you)
- Rebuild of the archive with it
- Report bugs upstream (OpenJDK)
- Fix issues in the packages
* If there is any, try to perform some "hardening" flags during the
compilation
* Run some static Java analyzers (related to the work done on scan-build
and coccinelle) on the Java base code.
