java@gcc.gnu.org is definitely my favorite, but I'd accept gcj@gcc.gnu.org
as a compromise. The list is really about gcj but in practice (2) and (3)
are often relevant topics, and "java@" just looks better.
Both of these are better than "java-discuss", since the "-discuss" part is
redundant and does imply the wrong thing.
