+This packages contains information about how to make your java environment
+work. The package contains the Proposed Debian Java Policy and
+the Debian Java FAQ. It should probably be enough to get things going.
+
+They can be found at
+/usr/share/doc/java-common/debian-java-faq.html
+and
+/usr/share/doc/java-common/debian-java-policy.html
+
+Previously it existed a bunch of *-dummy packages. They have now been
+removed from the archive. If you need to fullfill the dependencies you have
+to make your own dummy package. The equivs package might help you with
+this.

+ that people seems to have agreed upon, in the debian-java@lists.debian.org
+ mailinglist. Closes: #107809, #107810.
+ Also converted it to docbook format.
+ * Removed manpage.
+ * Fixed the copyright file, closes: #55524.
+ * Removed java-compiler-dummy.
+ * Removed java-virtual-machine-dummy.
+ * Removed java1-runtime-dummy.
+ * Removed dummy config files. After this package is uploaded I'll ask for
+ the removal of the *-dummy packages that was previously mentioned in
+ the policy.
