JDK 1.5.0 patchset 8 "Tarragindi"

[Greg Lewis]

On behalf of the BSD Java Porting team, I'm pleased to announce the
availability of patchset 8 "Tarragindi" for JDK 1.5, based on the
JDK 1.5.0 Update 14 JRL source code.

The two biggest enhancements are support for NetBSD/amd64 and fully fledged
support for the browser plugin on amd64.  The patchset also includes bug
fixes and updates the code base to use the 1.5.0 Update 14 source code.

The following platforms are supported by this release:

        FreeBSD 4.8/i386 (or later)
        FreeBSD 5.3/i386 (or later)
        FreeBSD 5.3/amd64 (or later)
        NetBSD 2.0/i386 (or later)
        NetBSD 2.0/amd64 (or later)
        OpenBSD 3.9/i386 (or later)
        OpenBSD 4.0/amd64 (or later)

The patchset can be downloaded at:
