Hi,
Both of those packages (jdk and jre) are already in the community repo. In general you shouldn't upload packages to the AUR that already exist in core/extra/community (I think developmental versions and other variations are permitted as long as they're properly named).
Could you explain why you've created such a package? If you're trying to achieve something specific then perhaps someone on the list can offer some suggestions of how to proceed.

jdk and jre in [community] are not updated as often as they should be imo (currently out-of-date, again), and the only other option is jre/jdk_beta, which are, well, beta! also, my package installs both jdk and jre (in the same manner as openjdk) so users don't download the same binary package twice (a la jre/jdk_beta) if they are unaware.. regards..
