Removed DBeaver it's just a tool which isn't Java specific
Removed JDBI since it is not widely used or known
Removed JDBCTemplate
Removed IBM J9 and Rockit, too old too specific too obscure
Removed the dozen different Spring projects, will need to find a solution for that
Removed DynamicJasper
Renamed Permissions to Security
Removed Keycloak, looks promising but is beta and absolutely unknown
Removed Colt, any reason to use it over Parallel Colt?
Renamed Science
Removed Mines JTK not very known, very specific
Removed JavaTuples...
