Thanks :-)

Yea I agree, there's lots of potential for consolidation here. Something
I always wanted to do and never got around to actually doing it :-)

We don't actively follow OpenJDK6 (which is an early fork off OpenJDK7
and not based on JDK6 at all). Now that JDK7 doesn't really change
anymore, it should be easy to follow. I doubt we will create a fork for
JDK7 and backporting new changes to it though, feel free to do that if
you like ;-)
