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.

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.
