I'd like to formally offer to take over the lead of the OpenJDK 6 project. Azul Systems (my employer) has clients who would like to continue to use JDK 6 and we will continue to support them. In the spirit of the OpenJDK project we would like to continue to push any bug fixes into the OpenJDK 6 source tree. I'm happy to discuss this, as required. Regards, Simon.
