Thanks, I'll definitely try to get some ideas from there !

Unfortunately, not yet. I have two small problems in the source tarball:
* jars/netscape.jar
* jars/Acme.jar
I didn't really look deeply into the rest yet, but it seems fine. Do
you have any idea of where I could find the source of those ?
Acme.jar obviously come from http://www.acme.com, which means it's
most likely BSD and therefore packageable -- if only I could find the
source ! I don't have any ideas yet about netscape.jar
Cheers,
Vincent
PS: you debian-med guys are closely following ITPs, it seems
PPS: for the same reasons as for jalview, I think it will end up in
pkg-java, as java packaging is something rather painful and delicate...
PPPS: would it make sense to have debian-med (or the @lists.alioth
equivalent) uploader for Jmol and Jalview ?
