The following points are discussions about the policy, either
because they have to be studied more, or are controversial.
Name and existence of the repository. It was removed
in the latest version.
The symbolic links in /usr/share/java be
made by a script instead, similar to the c-libraries.
Core classes (java.*). More study
needed.
Sun's Community Source Licence. Can we use it? How?
The 2.3 version of the text can be found
here.
All jars must have a good CLASSPATH documentation, but
how should it be documented. The best solution is probably in some
computer parsable format to make it even easier for the developer.
It should exist some tool to parse this. How should it
work?
Should the tool also be used to create the necessary symbolic
links needed by servlets under tomcat?
Should there be a default CLASSPATH, similar to a
repository? Which jars should be included in that? A standard and
one optional part? If there are a default CLASSPATH (in the
wrapper) how should it be overridden?
How to check for a good enough JVM, and to select a
proper one to use. Are /etc/alternatives
not good enough?
Should the JVM internal classes be possible to
override entirely and how?
