 * No binary processing
 * Source code review: none
== Quality assurance ==
 * Package works out of the box without configuration, no debconf questions
 * Package is only available in Ubuntu right now. Should be adopted in Debian very soon
 * Upstream is vigorous
 * Upstream bug tracker: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/NETTY, no relevant bugs
 * Hardware: package doesn't deal with hardware
