getting to 5.x binary packages



Ok, this is a sort of 'getting from A to B' question, except that I
dont presently have a good idea as to where 'A' is precicely ;-)

It would be nice to have binary packages of jdk 1.4 (or 1.5 i guess,
but anyways) so that it could be a simple download and hopefully ship
with one of the 5.x releases. So could anybody tell me if  :

   * there is a plan (or how to get to one existing)
   * what the plan is
   *  what other java related plans are in FreeBSD
   * if thereare obvious concrete ways somebody could help
   * what these ways would be

I can promise to make a patches to the existing web pages @
http://www.freebsd.org/java/howhelp.html  about the state if
somebody explains it ...
