Java 3D, JAI and JOGL

[geearf]

Hello, as these 3 are now open source, i wondered if it was possible to get them in some repos ?

I already installed them by hand at work, but my boss would like to have an automatic update of it, not depending on whether she has to check the website.

Thanks for any comment,

If possible for both i386 and amd64 versions please.

I Agree ...

Cool... but I'd like to see Debian packages already available for these...

[geearf]

Oh i don't think there are :(

I can still try later to make them (i've never made packages without checkinstall but i can try).

Do you mean you only backport stuff when they are in the debian world (or ubuntu of course) ?

[jdong]

Correct. It's not just that I don't have time to be making packages (though that's part of the reason), it's that these packages take a lot of expertise and dedicated tracking of the specific source tree through its development, something that takes a dedicated maintainer. I simply can't afford to maintain so many packages. Perhaps the Ubuntu developers are willing to help you out via Universe (MOTU)

[geearf]

Oh ok i guess i get it :)

Anyway thanks for answering,
how can i try to ask for MOTU ?
(it's not like i'm desperate to have it in a repos, as i've already build most and installing the rest, but you know .. much cleaner :) )

edit : i still have that in my hand if it could help anyone :
