  Description     : "batteries-included" distribution of ImageJ2

Fiji is an image processing package — a "batteries-included"
distribution of ImageJ, bundling many plugins which facilitate
scientific image analysis.

I intend to maintain this package under the Debian Science Team
umbrella.

I spent quite a few hours spent following dependencies, and it seems
that Fiji is much more work than initially expected. Even building
ImageJ2 requires a host of unpackaged modules, each with their own set
of dependencies and so on. My gut feeling is that packaging Fiji would
require tens or hundreds of Java modules first… which makes it
unpractical. I therefore retitle this ITP to RFP.
