10548	Refactor the java pages	Pierre Labastie	Pierre Labastie	"After a poll to the lists, it appears nobody cares much about compiling ''jar'' files from source. In this case, ''junit'' is not needed. Furthermore, ''icedtea-web'', which cannot be used by major browsers, can go, too.

We'll need only ''ant'' (for building some Java bindings, or HSQLDB in libreoffice), and ''fop'', for rendering the book in pdf. Those can be binary only installs (that is only jar files, configuration files, and shell scripts for starting them).

A page should be added to provide general information on how to install other Java binaries, with ''junit'' as an example: having an ''id=""junit""'' attribute somewhere allows to keep our existing ''<xref>'' tags.

When this is done, ticket #10422 will be ""overcomebyevents""."	task	closed	normal	8.4	BOOK	SVN	medium	fixed
