OpenJDK 6 build 13 source posted

[Joseph D. Darcy]

The source bundle for OpenJDK 6 build 13 is available for download from:

    http://download.java.net/openjdk/jdk6/

Fixes of note include:

* If using the most recent version of jtreg 
(http://download.java.net/openjdk/jtreg/), the langtools regression 
tests can be run in the much faster "same vm" mode of jtreg (enabled 
with the -s option), all the langtools regression tests now pass out of 
the box, and a few miscellaneous bugs have been fixed [1].  Thanks to 
Jon Gibbons for both the jtreg and langtools components necessary for 
the speedy test runs.

* Gervill update, including applying a patch from IcedTea [2]

* Publishing a few dozen additional existing regression tests as open 
source [3]

* JMX and monitoring fixes [4]

* Updated man pages [5]

* Assorted other fixes [6]

Kelly has made good progress on the Mercurial repository, but some more 
work remain to be done.  I'd expect to have trial repositories available 
within a week or two.
