It's quite sad that, here we are, nearly two years after OpenJDK was
released (and more than two years for HotSpot), yet no-one thought
that this should have been done in an open and transparent way.  What
exactly is special about this internal tree that this couldn't just
have been done on hg.openjdk.net?
