I'm checking this in. This adds a Java news item.
Gerald, I have a patch to add this to the gcc page which I can send.
Do you think it is important enough to warrant a gcc-wide
announcement? Last time I posted a Java news item you asked me to put
news items onto the main page. I'm happy to do that, but it isn't
clear to me when something that is important to Java is important
enough to mention to the entire gcc community.
Thanks,
Tom

+Anthony Green of Red Hat has added a facility for compiling property
+files and other system resources into libraries and executables.
+These files are accessible to the gcj runtime via the new "core"
+protocol handler. The gcj runtime places "core:/" at the end of the
+java.class.path, ensuring that compiled-in resource files are
+discovered and loaded when required. This is a convenient feature for
+building and deploying libraries and executables with no external file
+dependencies. See the "-R" option in the gcj manual for details.
