Hi,
in the community-repository is a package called jap. This package has some disadvantages compaired with the jondo-package I created in AUR:

 * misnamend: The application jap, developed by AN.ON and TU Dresden is discontinued for nearly two years now but jondo was developed out of it. The java-archive still has the name JAP.jar but the application itself isn't called jap anymore but jondo so the package has the wrong name. In short the package in the community-repository is called jap but contains jondo (now developed still under BSD-licence by jondos.de) .
 * no man-page
 * no menu-entry
 * depends on prorpeitary jre-version although the free openjdk6-version works as well!


Is it possible to remove jap in favor of jondo?

Is this at all the right place to ask for this?

greetings
