-New in release 0.21 (to be released)
-
-* Swing improvements: JTable columns are rearrangeable and resizeable with
- mouse. Painting and scrolling are now much faster. Plain text components
- now support highlighting and copy+paste to the system clipboard.
- Support for styled text has been improved, including some very basic HTML
- support. JFileChooser is now usable. Global event dispatching has been
- implemented. Memory consumption of Swing components has been reduced.
- Lots of general bugfixes.
- Added new system property to turn of Graphics2D use in Swing, even
- if Graphics2D is available: -Dgnu.javax.swing.noGraphics2D .
-
-* GNU Crypto and Jessie have been merged into Classpath; this will
- provide Classpath with a wide array of cryptographic algorithms

+* AWT. Improved support for mixing "lightweigth" and "heavyweight"
+ Components in Containers. Better support for dynamically updated
+ menus. Better 1.0 event model support for Scrollbars. Better class
+ documentation of gtk+ awt peers.
+
+* GNU Crypto and Jessie have been merged into GNU Classpath; this
+ provides Classpath with a wide array of cryptographic algorithms
(ciphers, message digests, etc.) and implementations of SSL version
3 and TLS version 1. These roughly complement the public
`java.security.' `javax.crypto,' and `javax.net.ssl' packages, and
are service providers implementing the underlying algorithms.
-* Unicode 4.0.0 is supported.
+* Updated HTTP and FTP URLConnection protocol handlers. HTTPS support
+ out of the box.
+
+* Unicode 4.0.0 is supported. Character now includes support for using
+ ether a char or an int to identify code points.
+
+* More correct handling of Object methods and serialization support
+ for Proxy and abstract classes.
* The new folder tools includes GIOP and RMI stub and tie source code
- generators, IOR parser and both transient and persistent GIOP naming services.

-* RELAX NG pluggable XML schema datatype library API and an implementation
- for XML Schema Datatypes (http://www.w3.org/TR/xmlschema-2/).

-* Added experimental support for dynamic creation of the RMI stubs using proxy
- classes. The rmic compiler is no longer required (unless for research
- and specific stubs).

* javax.imageio.plugins.bmp implementation.
* Added --enable-collections configure option which builds
"collections.jar", a 1.1 VM compatibility jar.
+* gnu.regexp updated from GNU/Posix syntax to support util.regex
+ syntax including various Unicode blocks, categories and properties.
+
Runtime interface changes:
* A new class, VMMath, is now available which separates the native
mathematical functions from java.lang.Math. The previous fdlibm
implementation now forms the reference material for this class.
+* Updated VMObjectInputStream class to return Thread context class
+ loader if no other class loader is found.
+
+* Updated documentation on InstrumentationImpl in vmintegration guide.

New in release 0.20 (Jan 13, 2006)
* New StAX pull parser and SAX-over-StAX driver. Lots of DOM, SAX/StAX,
