Thermostat 0.2 Released!

[Jon VanAlten]

Hi all,

Those of us working on Thermostat have decided it is time to produce another
release.  So, without further ado, we present to you:

Thermostat 0.2: The Dharma Bums

You can download this release at:
http://icedtea.classpath.org/download/thermostat/thermostat-0.2.tar.gz

We have added several new features that users will want to check out:
 * New GC tool monitoring GC frequency and time spent in GC.
 * Basic history mode for saving and offline analysis of monitoring data.
 * Command line interface providing one-shot commands as well as shell mode.
 * GUI client now displays CPU load information for each process.

We have also made a number of improvements that developers will be interested in:
 * Switch from ant to maven build infrastructure.
 * Testing!  We have tests!  They cover now the majority of code base.
 * GUI tests use Cacio to avoid focus-stealing issues when running tests.
 * Storage-access isolated to DAO classes.
 * Client code separated into MVC triads.

Several major bugs have been fixed, including:
 * PR954: Thermostat GUI client should remember my last panel selected
 * PR956: Thermostat GUI client should update view when new Java process is found
 * PR957: Thermostat GUI doesn't exit when closed, needs killing
 * PR976: About dialog crashes with GTK look and feel
