[fedora-java] What's the deal with geronimo-specs?

[Mary Ellen Foster]

In the course of some other Java stuff, I noticed that the
geronimo-specs package doesn't include Maven depmaps
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=530088). I then decided
to take a look at the actual SRPM itself to see how hard it would be
to add things, and it looks like it's actually *very* old (version
1.0M2, released in August 2004) and it doesn't actually build from
source any more on Rawhide (errors about javax.transaction.*).

What's this package for, anyway? Would it hurt anything to package the
2.1.4 version (March 2009) instead?
