There's too many packages I guess. It's likely we won't be able to
transition
*all* packages. If we manage to convert core let's say 300-400 I'll be happy and
consider this all a success since that will mean we'll test the code in most
possible situations.
Some simple packages could be converted automatically, but verification might
actually ake longer than just doing it manually :-)
OK. Do we have an examples of 'common things you might need to know to
migrate your packages', 'how to verify your migrated package', etc? (Then
again,
if it's just going to be a few people in the Java SIG doing most of the migrations,
it may not be necessary.)
At this point I'm happy with automatic requires (which will
likely keep us
occupied to make sure unnecessary stuff doesn't creep in everywhere)
Nah, that never happens! :)
