To cut Bero a bit of slack, he creates the RPMs on his own time (mostly).  
RedHat gives him next to no support internally.

Not that that excuses RedHat at all...

As for your java issues with Konqueror, it depends on what version of Java 
you are using.  You need java 1.3 or better (the IBM version works great 
for me).  Java support in the upcoming 3.1 (not due until this Fall) is 
*much* improved over the 3.0.x series as well.
