I believe the author has assumed nominal responsibilty for JDE. I'm
pretty sure we gave him CVS commit privileges, so it would probably be
worth prodding him a bit.
I talked to Paul and he hopes to be able to update the repository in the next
two weeks. He has the commit privileges already, so I guess is only a matter of
time to do it.
