I'm wondering about this advice. Are the jdk groups really each 
responsible to maintain the responsiveness of the webbugs infrastructure 
i.e. bugs.sun.com?

Anyway I too asked for help in that problem by side on core-libs-dev and 
hotspot mailing lists, but didn't get any answer. :-(

Very much thanks for this effort. I presumed, Nelson had left Sun, 
because of repetitively not answering. So I asked for another 
responsible for webbugs infrastructure on bugs.sun.com.

That was clear before, but I didn't have anything where to point on.

Thanks,
