Hi Martin,

Your patches also touch files "owned" by different areas so you probably 
need to split them up into different groups. java.lang changes go 
through core-libs at openjdk.java.net, AWT through 
awt-dev at openjdk.java.net. I don't know if the imageio stuff belongs to 
AWT or 2D or ...

Of course if someone sponsors these simple patches they may be able to 
do the split for you.
