THIRD_PARTY_README mangled

Tim/Kelly, why are there copies of the THIRD_PARTY_README in 7 different 
repositories?  We started with 7 identical copies, but now they have 
diverged into two different versions following Tim's putback.  Are they 
supposed to be all the same?  What's the intent here?  See below.


Martin,

I'm not seeing this reformatting you're talking about...

What I do see here...there are now two different versions of the 
THIRD_PARTY_README in the repositories.  I don't know why or what was 
intended (above).

1)  There was an initial load in all these workspaces:

., corba, hotspot, langtools, jaxp, jaxws, jdk

All the README files are identical.  (same sums)

2)  The following workspaces were updated by Tim Bell to add something 
by Marti Maria, and remove something by Peter Norvig.

jaxp, jaxws, jdk

This were done under three different bugs:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7/jaxp/raw-rev/b56d870cb5c8
6738894: Merge jaxp fixes from 6 update train into OpenJDK 6 and 7

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7/jaxws/raw-rev/31822b475baa
6831313: update jaxws in OpenJDK7 to 2.1 plus bug fixes from OpenJDK 6

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7/jdk/raw-rev/13cd6eb34cfa
6695776: corba jscheme jar files in repository could be built from source

I didn't see any reformatting.

3)  All of the workspaces were updated by Abhijit for a copyright date 
change (2005 to 2007):

6803688: Integrate latest JAX-WS (2.1.6) in to JDK 6u14

For some reason, the same change went into the jaxws repository but 
under a different bugid.

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk7/jdk7/jaxws/diff/860b95cc8d1d/THIRD_PARTY_README
6813167: 6u14 JAX-WS audit mutable static bugs

Again, I'm not seeing any reformatting.

Brad
