I also heavily rely on JWS at work. I hope an alternative to JWS
supporting application and Java runtime upgrades will emerge.

Yes they are. First you checkout the package (either with "debcheckout"
if the VCS is up to date, or "apt-get source" otherwise) and then run
"debuild" from the source directory fetched.

Regarding the VCS, I'll import the repository to salsa.debian.org.
