  Hi,

  More on the specific issue for the java team:

  I just realized that htsjdk will also need a pom file itself.
Where can I find documentation about pom files? How to create one
in a Debian package? It is necessarily manually (I'm afraid to miss
dependencies, especially when new upstream releases are packaged) ?
Is there some tools/helpers to create and/or maintain a pom file?

    Vincent
