(I'm assuming you're referring to bug report on IcedTea here.) Is that surprising at all? According to popcon [1,2], IcedTea is installed 1 tenth time wrt the number of sun-java6 plugin installations (which is probably an underestimation, given that the sun-java6 plugin package was just a meta package). How about making an announcement (Debian News, d-d-a) that explains how to switch to IcedTea and that you are looking for testers? Cheers.
