I didn't intend to drop the ppc64 port, I was just unaware of it.
Otherwise I'd have tried to support it with a separate tarball just like
aarch64. If you remember well I sent you a mail in April to get your
feedback on what I had achieved so far, I also called for review on
debian-java but you never commented on my work. So I'm a bit stunned to
learn 3 months later that you got highly annoyed by the lack of ppc64
support.

What is going to work to get commit access then? I've done hundreds of
updates over the past year and it went well, I find it a bit unfair to
be judged on the one update that failed.

I sent a pull request for icedtea-web, is this an acceptable
contribution format for you?
https://code.launchpad.net/~ebourg/openjdk/icedtea-web/+merge/225908
I don't mind setting up a review process between us, but please don't
leave my requests unanswered for weeks, that's very difficult to
contribute in this condition.

Regarding icedtead-sound, if the same version is used for all JDKs why
not using an independent package? I created the libpulse-java package
with this in mind (that was before Andrew split the driver into a
separate icedtead-sound project, so I'll probably rename the package to
match the upstream name).

I'll make a proposal for this.
