you are welcome.

I would never use Java for Bluetooth programming, but it seems that some
companies wants this, especially mobile phone manufacturers. So I think
we should build up a clean implementation of the JSR-82 standard that
uses BlueZ as underlying Bluetooth stack. Clean means for me that we
should concentrate on BlueZ and try to interface BlueZ<->JSR-82 as best
as possible. Give me some comments if there is really interest in doing
this.
