I seriously object to this. I do not think that forking all packages in Debian and creating -jp-package is the right way to go. What should be done is submit patches to the maintainers, preferably both Debian and upstream. What I was hoping to see with the integration of Debian-JP is that all the multibyte patches would be *integrated* with Debian, not a senseless forking of lots of packages. I'm even more annoyed that you didn't even contact the maintainer of the grep package (me) before posting this.
