[Steps snipped]

I think this is a great idea FWIW.

To elaborate on a previous question I had.  Lets say we are suddenly able
to distribute a binary version of the J2SDK (1.2.2 for arguments sake).
Is the jdk12 port then replaced by the binary distribution?  Would we then
create a src-jdk12 (or somesuch) port in case people want to compile it
from source?  I ask because a binary version may have some functionality
missing (e.g. the DPS libraries) that people may want to make their own
decision about and compile in.
