IcedTea6 1.10 Released!

[Dr Andrew John Hughes]

We are pleased to announce a new major release of IcedTea6, 1.10!

The IcedTea6 project provides a harness to build the source code from
OpenJDK6 using Free Software build tools. It also includes the only
Free Java plugin and Web Start implementation, and support for using
alternate virtual machines such as CACAO and JamVM.

What’s New?
—————–

* NetX and the plugin moved to the IcedTea-Web project with a separate
  release cycle.
* Shark provided upstream rather than as part of IcedTea.
* The option --with-openjdk becomes --with-jdk-home and --disable-bootstrap
* Support for building with HotSpot 20 from its stable tree
* Added out-of-the-box JamVM support using --enable-jamvm.
* Allow building of JamVM beside the default VM by using --with-additional-vms=jamvm
* Allow the location of the JamVM source zip to be specified using --with-jamvm-src-zip
* Import of OpenJDK6 b21 including upgrade to HotSpot 19
