Exactly, dunno how it escaped my eyes, do see that the mailing list
still functioning
Aha, so all alioth lists are/were not dead.
was looking at https://alioth-lists-archive.debian.net/pipermail/
instead of https://alioth-lists.debian.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo
so there is still hope :), thank you for the link.

Thank you for sharing that, I did see the gradle discussion on the
mailing list web interface.
do see that there is either going to be lot of midnight burning oil
if we have to all the components working together before deep-freeze
sets in.
Btw, do you mean the gradle version in 'experimental' by any chance ?
$ apt-cache policy gradle
gradle:
Installed: 3.4.1-7
Candidate: 3.4.1-7
Version table:
4.4-1 100
100 http://deb.debian.org/debian experimental/main amd64 Packages
*** 3.4.1-7 500
500 http://deb.debian.org/debian buster/main amd64 Packages
100 http://deb.debian.org/debian unstable/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
Please let me know as a user if I can contribute anything (testing or
something) so more feedback is generated.
