    <p>The FreeBSD Java community has started an effort to improve the
		  current framework for Java-based ports. The main objective is the
		  automation of JDK/JRE build and run dependency checking.</p>
    <p>The original version was aimed to ease the life of porters.  Although
		  it has proved to be useful and reliable to a great extend, we are
		  currently working on a new version. We intend to reach a high degree
		  of flexibility to cope with the recent increase of available JDK/JRE
		  flavors.  Furthermore, the new version will be easier to maintain,
		  which means improved reliability, and hopefully more frequent
		  updates.</p>
