How to get notified of latest GA Release

[Medi Montaseri]

Hi,

We would like to stay on the heels of OpenJDK GA Releases. Such as current jdk8u20 and later jdk8u40. Is there any recommendation on how to go about it? Options that I can think of include:

1- A SOAP API portal would be nice, but I don't think it exists today.
2- How about mercurial itself? But I think I need some consistent tagging and the format of it. So far I know it looks like jdk8u20-bnn.
3- Parse some web page. This is least desirable. web pages are too artistic and they change every week
4- Email, same problem as web page, it restricts the publisher as well.

You guys know better...so to recap....I want to run a cron and find out if there is a new GA release, and if so proceed with fetch and build.

Thanks
Medi
