If you want to look at gradle, good luck - it looks like all linux distributions I looked at have given up on packaging it properly. Only Arch is providing up-to-date gradle packages, but they're only bundling up the upstream release binaries, which isn't acceptable for fedora. For something easier to start with, I suggest looking at the packages the stewardship-sig group is maintaining: https://decathorpe.fedorapeople.org/stewardship-sig.html#maintained-packages Since almost all other Java packages have disapparated, we're pretty much taking care of the whole base of the Java stack. But we can only provide maintenance on a best-effort basis, so it would be great to have somebody with real-world Java experience look at some of the packages. General information, helper scripts and the ticketing system for our group is hosted here: https://pagure.io/stewardship-sig/ For example, we have a list of outdated packages here: https://decathorpe.fedorapeople.org/stewardship-sig-stats.html There's also a list of Pull Requests that are ready for review: https://decathorpe.fedorapeople.org/stewardship-sig-prs.html This spreadsheet has a broad overview of everything, including some comments on why some updates are blocked: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11RlwsEs-LJgTOrUD1P4LpsvW9icVQrvrU5RFqxUuccY/edit?usp=sharing Hope this helps.
