Producing community binaries for OpenJDK

[Martijn Verburg]

Hi Mario,

Perfect!  You can already see all of the code and issues etc at the
http://www.gihub.com/AdoptOpenJDK (look for the recent openjdk-* named
repos).  You can see the CI master at http://ci.adoptopenjdk.net.  I
really do want to get one more website fix in before I release that
today as it will convey important licensing and community information
(I don't want FUD about this effort to spread, so a decent About / FAQ
is required).
Cheers,
Martijn
