IcedTea 2.5.0 has been released

[Tiago Sturmer Daitx]

IcedTea 2.5.0 is out! This version merged code from ppc-aix-port to
enable JIT on PPC64 and PPC64LE, replacing ZERO as the default hotspot.
\o/

This version will be getting to GNU/Linux distros all around in the
upcoming days/weeks/months. Get ready!

Congratulations to all of you for the awesome work you have been doing
to bring JIT to PowerPC. Kudos to Alexander Smundak for the PPC64LE
support and Andrew Hughes (IcedTea maintainer) for the sync, bug fixes,
and the awesome version name: "POWER to the People!"
