The jython package is out of date in Community (2.2.1), while the lastest version of Jython is 2.5.1 See: http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?q=jython

I wish there was an updated package of Jython in for instance Community or AUR and I'm willing to make and maintain such a package. I'm already maintaining several packages in AUR. See: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?SeB=m&K=trontonic&O=0&PP=25&SO=d&SB=v

Since I'm not a TU and I understand that one should not create packages in AUR that already exists, I wonder what I can do to mend the current situation. Should I apply to become a TU, just submit a package named "jython" to AUR and/or request that the current jython package is deleted? How is this kind of situation normally handled?

Objections?

i rushed sending the other mail. is fine by me to move it in aur. -- Ionut
