I don't know that I'm sufficiently experienced with Java packaging to
be helpful, but I've had a lot of experience with pedanticalness.
Surely that qualifies me for writing guidelines! :-)

Seriously, though, I'll be happy to give whatever help I can.  I can
start by reviewing both the Java-related material on the wiki and
whatever guidelines I can find on jpackage.org.  Has anybody compiled
any kind of list of problems encountered with Java packages?
