On top of removing javaxpcom as mentioned above, I would like to get rid
of python-xpcom as generated from xulrunner. I already have a package
mostly ready for a separated python-xpcom (ITP: #591894), for which I
made sure the same codebase as the one embedded in xulrunner is going to
be used, and that Luke Faraone already tested with Browse.activity from
the olpc stack, cf.
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/debian-olpc-devel/2010-August/002905.html

Would the release team allow me to upload this new package to unstable
with the intended goal to have it included in squeeze (or not, if the
olpc stack is to be left out of squeeze), in place of the currently
xulrunner-generated package ?

Cheers,

Mike
