Just to be clear, he's also an IcedTea hacker.

I'm fine with it being major, but please note that our developer resources are
pretty limited. You can see the IcedTea activity on
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/distro-pkg-dev/. The majority of the
focus is on OpenJDK proper.

Nice to see that webstart developers are looking at this :)
