Abandoned. I have been a "weekend mantainer" for some time, but in
the end grow frustrated and decided my spare time deserved something
more satisfactory to fill it in.
I guess no one is maintaining the java bindings at the moment :(
Yet, please grab up your patches and attach them to a Trac ticket
so that they are more visible and someone with commit rights can
check them in.

Cheers
