That's indeed the interface I use to access this list
(and several others). The earliest message in GMANE is
from 13th March 2002:

    http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gcc.java.devel/1

The earliest message accessible through the web interface
on gcc.gnu.org is dated 10th September 1998:

    http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/java/1998-09/msg00000.html
