Help to upgrade icedtea-web

[Vincent Privat <vincent@josm.openstreetmap.de>]

Hello,

Following Emmanuel's request for more manpower in the Java 10/11 migration I volunteer to help.

I have very little Debian packaging experience so I may ask beginner/rookie questions; I hope this is OK.

I am interested in upgrading icedtea-web to fix #886109 and #894360.

My first question: Is the VCS up-to-date? There's a vcswatch warning about that. The changelog I find in Bazaar stops at 1.6.2-1 while the current package version is 1.6.2-3.1:

Cheers,

Vincent
