We don't have any. Matthew stopped posting just over a year ago (Sept 2013). 
To be honest, given the amount of traffic on this list, I don't think we 
realised he had stopped participating.

Anyway, as it stands, D-Bus Java is now clearly unmaintained. It's probably in 
a much better state than the various C++ bindings and bindings to other 
languages, but nonetheless it's not active anymore.

If someone wants to take up maintenance, we could offer space for the Unix 
socket library in freedesktop.org.
