RE: [general] upcoming snapshot (JDK this time)

["Morozova, Nadezhda" <na...@intel.com>]

All,
I'm compiled a really short README that could go with our next snapshot.
http://wiki.apache.org/harmony/READMEForJDKBuild 
If it does not look too pretty, it is ok in source - formatted in .txt.

Can we use this draft as the basis for a good readme? 

There are some TBD items inside and the README is really very short. It
relies on the fact that we have some /doc/ directory in the snapshot
where we store several essential pages from the website - see the text
for the names of pages. 
Your edits and additions are most welcome.

Cheers, 
Nadya

Yep.  I'm adding some edits now.  Note that we cannot ever say that 
we're compatible with the Java SE 5 spec until we actually pass the TCK. 
  I'll include language in there to reflect that.

Edits committed.  I'm not sure that we should put too much content in 
the docs directory.  I like this page you did, but maybe we should 
continue to push people to the website for now?
