Just a question for the future:
You said, that Swing could be a problem, because currently 
there is no free implementations of it. 
Well, I\'m planning to implement a Swing GUI for Jacksum. The GUI will be 
complete independent of Jacksum, Jacksum will be complete independent of the 
GUI, but my question is: it is possible to host also the Swing-GUI for Jacksum 
at savannah?
