Thanks for wanting to add this exercise @laritzalba! We really appreciate your effort 🙂

I see that this exercise in not in problem-specifications. Our policy has been to only have exercises from problem-specifications. That ensures that the exercises are consistent across different tracks. So normally we would encourage anyone with a new exercise idea to add that exercises to problem-specifications first before implementing it on this track.

However, as you mentioned problem-specifications isn't accepting any new exercises at the moment as they're busy figuring out how exercism v3 will be. I believe the intention is for exercises to be different for each track in v3. However, this hasn't been properly thought out yet.

Given that we're at this in-between stage, I'm not sure if it would be best for us to accept new track specific exercises or not. What do you think @exercism/java? 🙂
