Again, please only do the actual uploading *after* openjdk-8 8u292-b10-1
(or higher) has been built for all architectures. This is a version I
have NOT yet uploaded because ftpmasters must first ACCEPT 8u282-b08-2
(which is a rather hackish upload containing self-built binaries) so the
B-D for future uploads will be available again. 8u292-b10-1 will be the
first upload that’ll be built on the buildds again then.

Yes, definitely. (Not something I see me helping with, though.)

$ lintian -vIiE --pedantic --color=auto *.changes

This often finds many more than one’s standard invocations do.

Manpages are important (now’s the time to write some ☺) but
not a conditio-sine-qua-nōn. I delivered the one for Jamulus
later, too (lack of time to write one for the hurried upload
to NEW).
