hg.openjdk.java.net/sumatra/sumatra-*

[Deneau, Tom]

John --

The wiki page https://wikis.oracle.com/display/HotSpotInternals/SumatraRepositoryInfo
looks like a good start.  I will make some edits to it later regarding named branches once
we figure out what the server can support.  You mentioned some server config will be required,
how does that get done?

One other question was the occasional pulling form the latest jdk8 into sumatra-dev.
Is that something that any committer can do, or does it happen automatically at some frequency?
Does the pulling from jdk8 follow the usual path of going first into sumatra-dev-gate and finally into sumatra-dev?
