403 is forbidden error. My guess is this is something that is being imposed on you by your firewall settings, because I can access that URL fine from my own network without getting 403 error.
Does this reproduce when you try the same thing from a different network?
In the bug, I posted the curl response for that URL same box and same
network.

Interesting. Do you have the same problem if you use the java installer and install jedit into your home directory? Because I am unable to reproduce this on my end with my version. But I do not use the debian installer.
I'll give the java installer a try later in the week (Wed). I'm short on time at the moment.
