Thank you for taking of these packages. Regarding the *-java-doc
packages, considering their extremely low popcon I wouldn't bother too
much with them. It slows the builds when the javadoc links are resolved
and uses a significant amount of space on the mirrors. If nobody uses
them I don't think it's worth the trouble.

I'd stick to the javadoc only too.

Filing an ITP is recommended. As for crediting the packagers, you can
probably mention them in debian/copyright if you reused some bits from
the other packages.
