I think you are right on target :-)

There really isn't a document about that at this point.  Generally, I 
think that writing to the list (just as you have been) is the way to go 
about it at first.

Unfortunately, the head of the Spread project (Jonathan Stanton) and 
most of the other core developers are all at a conference this week.  
Don't think they are blowing you off... Just be patient.  I am sure that 
your Java changes will be merged into the tree as soon as someone has a 
chance.

I am the maintainer of the Spread.pm perl module.  I saw a typographical 
correction fly by on the list about causal order not being "casual" 
ordering.. :-)  I will fix that and put a new version up on CPAN soon.
