For now, running an testing all packages in the migration overlay is the
most pressing concern. Try to merge and use as many Java packages as
you can, preferably with a few different JDKs, and also on a few
different arches, if you have access to more than x86.

If you see a few which clearly relate to migration, or if your
curiousity gets the better of you, of course you can hack on those as
well. The further away you stray from the migration project, the less
likely it is that we'll be able to include your suggestions/fixes
immediately.
