[pkg-eucalyptus-maintainers] Bug#684453: Bug#684453: Bug#684453: Bug#684453: hand over packaging to debian-java team

[Brian Thomason]

Hi All,

Sorry for the radio silence.  I was waiting to see if we could get
guava-gwt done before handing over to Debian-Java, but it looks like that
may still be a while yet unless someone from Debian java jumps in and helps
out. Apparently there are some differences with some Java primitives in
Sun's JDK, which google uses to compile, and OpenJDK, that are preventing
us from packaging it.
