I haven't asked, since I instead got informed about what blocks Scala
packaging in an open bug asking for packaging Scala 2.12, of which thread
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=845113
explains sbt is mandatory for building new Scala versions and asks for
help. I thus see the Java team is much aware of Scala state. Personally
I don't think I can help with sbt packaging.
If you remember seeing a discussion on sbt, I think it might be revived
to express our interest.
