Hi,

Is there a plan to package IcedTea 2.x for 12.2? It seems that there
is momentum building to move to JDK 7 by default [1].

If there is, I'd like to help, but the spec file [2] is a bit more
complicated than the ones I usually work with. Here are a few
questions:

1. Some defines are unused ; what is their purpose?

%define snapshot_date 20110729
%define fedorazip openjdk-7-fcs-src-%{openjdkver}-%{openjdkdate}.zip

2. There is a FIXME regarding mauve tests and JDK 7 ; how can I verify
if this is still needed?

# Mauve test suite
# FIXME: Is this applicable for 7?
Source10: mauve-%{mauvedate}.tar.gz
Source11: mauve_tests

3. What is the process of refreshing the sources for a new version?

I assume that I will retrieve the icedtea archive from
http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/source/ , and then refresh the
openjdk, corba etc snapshots, originally

%define openjdk_snapshot 0a76e5390e68
%define corba_snapshot 4d9e4fb8af09
%define hotspot_snapshot b28ae681bae0
%define jaxp_snapshot 948e734135ea
%define jaxws_snapshot a2ebfdc9db7e
%define jdk_snapshot 2054526dd141
%define langtools_snapshot 9b85f1265346

But how do I know which snapshot to use for a specific icedtea release?

(More questions may follow)

Thanks,

Robert
