If you e-mail me I can pass you the e-mail o f the contact I have there (I'm not sure he'd want me to post here, but I would see no problem in passing you it through e-mail) Also, we've had a lenghty discussion on how to do it, because if you're just using gcj, you could simply get the compiled jars pydev gives you and use gcj to compile those instead of having to change source code. In the end he decided to change source code because unbuntu required the whole toolchain to start from source-code and compile it, but if you don't have that restriction, you could make gcj work with the pydev jars (which are 1.4 compatible because of retroweaver).
