FYI: There's a guy who has already done this and hacked a package
named smupsd (also based on upsd); it's under the GPL and available
at <ftp://cms180.cmsnet.com/pub/smupsd/>.
Wouldn't it be better to look at his package (and maybe work together with
him)? I couldn't yet try it out because it is in RPM-format and don't have
Java installed yet.
What about to debianize this package?
