Java Library Maintenance

Plans and Ideas for Ubuntu

More Automated Testing

• Complex deployment scenario testing.

More Jenkins Plugins

• Build up of a community around the packaging of Jenkins + Plugins.

More Java Enterprise Applications

• At least one full JEE Stack for Ubuntu
• Tomcat 7
• Better Hadoop support.

Supporting packaging of Java libraries and applications

• Building up the Maven/Debian repository by ensuring Java libraries install
  • Maven artefacts to /usr/share/java/maven-repo.
• Improving the maven-debian-helper toolset to automate package production further.
• Move Maven + helper packages to main to ensure Java delta with Debian is minimal
