Availability of Jemmy V2

[Alexandre (Shura) Iline]

Tredinnick,

I am also sorry for the java.net to go away.

There is nothing to worry about as far as Jemmy is concerned, however. 

While looking for a new home for Jemmy I have figured out that openjdk is the most suitable of all, so I have created the projects which, perhaps, is what should have been the proper location all along.

Jemmy v2 is already there [1] with a minimum support to build it. I am on my way to re-introduce tests and then the documentation. Jemmy v3 would be next. I am too slow updating it but that is only because of time taken by other responsibilities - not because the project is abandoned.

On the contrary, in fact, Jemmy is now also used in the OpenJDK tests [2]. It has its negative side in that we had  to put Jemmy into OpenJDK as source [3], so there will be double integrations and, perhaps, merges back and forth.
