The stable 1.9 series uses b20 but includes many additional patches,
including some items upstreamed in b21 and some which have yet to be
upstreamed.

Build 21 will be used by the upcoming 1.10 release which will happen
in mid-February, but it will contain neither VisualVM nor the plugin
and WebStart support.

VisualVM support is in the separate VisualVM harness project and has
been since IcedTea6 1.9.

The plugin & NetX support will shortly appear in the first release of
the IcedTea-Web project.

See the IcedTea wiki for more details: http://icedtea.classpath.org/wiki
