-* Split native methods in java.lang.Runtime into java.lang.VMRuntime.
+* java.util.regexp implementation through gnu.regexp wrappers.
+* java.net.URI implementation.
+* Working implementation of javax.swing.undo.
* java.awt.geom.CubicCurve2D/QuadCurve2D: Can now solve cubic and quadratic
equations; implementation adapted from the GNU Scientific Library.
-* Fixed Classpath bugs:
+* Lots of java.awt and gtk+ peer improvements. Also more Swing work. Start
+ of EmbeddedWindow support.
+* BufferedReader speed improvements.
+* Improved useabilty of java.text implementation for several applications.
+* ObjectInputStream is much faster and more compatible with other

+* Fix handling of alias methods, where a method has been deprecated in

+* Resources are now also loaded/needed through the bootstrap classloader
+ (gnu.regexp needs MessageBundle included in glibj.zip
+
+Fixed Classpath bugs:
#6095 java.awt.geom.QuadCurve2D.solveQuadratic sometimes gives
wrong results
#7099 EventListenerList.getListenerCount should accept null argument
#7104 EventListenerList.add does not work
#7105 EventListenerList.remove does not work
#7107 DefaultBoundedRangeModel.setValue and friends should not throw
+ And lots more.
