Cheers to you all fellow free java hackers!
I had a great time at Fosdem 09, it was great fun meeting you(all) and I 
returned quite safely to Sweden a early thuesday morning after a rough 
airliner adventure, more about this will pop up on a familiar blogroll 
near you in the near future.

Before I forget, here I have composed some pointers to all the patches 
Robert Schuster had pushed on the mailinglist in order to make Icedtea6 
cross-compile using openembedded and Jalimo, fixes for shark and llvm. 
These patches needs sponsoring in one way or another:
