They made me notice this is mainly a work of yours, so I'm asking
directly to you if you're interested in porting avian to openjdk-8.

If you are not interested, or you don't reply timely (notice that the
original request that you already received is dated Feb 08, i.e. nearly
2 months ago) I'm going to proceed with the removal of this package, as
it is one of the few remaining blocker for openjdk-7 removal.
