Hi Matt,

Generally, bugzilla is the proper place to get the ball rolling for 
contributing ebuilds. Before you do so, I'd like to point out that we 
actually have ebuilds for a good number of them. So, what I suggest for 
these cases, is take a look at the ebuilds, and if you have any 
improvements over what we have, file bugs appropriately.

I'll comment in line where the ebuilds we have are. Information about 
getting at the overlays is at:
http://overlays.gentoo.org/proj/java/wiki/overlays

I assume this is apache-addressing? If so, we have an ebuild in 
java-migration-packages overlay.
