I updated IcedTea6 from icedtea6-hg on Friday to support the newly released
b21 tarball.  Before branching, I'd like to add the backports of:

java/awt/Insets/WindowWithWarningTest/WindowWithWarningTest.html fails

I've been working on, as discussed in the thread
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/jdk6-dev/2010-December/002126.html
[Note that 6725214 is already done, and will just be rejigged to work with these new \
backports]

I then plan to do the rename needed to drop the useless 'icedtea-' prefix from \
patches as mentioned a few times, then create the 1.10 branch.

Is there anything else anyone has planned for 1.10?  Speak now.

Current news looks like this:

* Upgrade to HotSpot 19 as default.
* NetX and the plugin moved to the IcedTea-Web project with a separate
  release cycle.
* Shark provided upstream rather than as part of IcedTea.
* The option --with-openjdk becomes --with-jdk-home and --disable-bootstrap
* Backports

and I'll merge in the b21 additions \
(http://blogs.sun.com/darcy/resource/OpenJDK_6/openjdk6-b21-changes-summary.html) on \
Monday.

[The current NEWS file lists security updates which have already gone out, and the \
list above also probably includes some.  I'll do a check on Monday].

Thanks,
