JPackage 1.6

[Nicolas Mailhot]

[This is a repost of the 19 november announce on JPackage lists. Since
JPackage serves is the upstream of numerous of FC Java packages I was
asked to echo it on FC-related rpm lists. Many thanks to Paul Nasrat for
the original announcement]

The JPackage Project http://www.jpackage.org/ is pleased to announce a
new release.  Upgrading should be a simple matter of pointing your
preferred depsolver at a mirror documented at
http://www.jpackage.org/repos.php

Since JPackage 1.5, the team has grown thanks to vendor interest and we
will continue providing packaging java packages, and we hope to have
some more exciting news soon.

JPackage will continue to host a devel repository for future large
changes. Please update your preferred depsolver to point to the 1.6
repositories as documented:

http://www.jpackage.org/repos.php

[ You will usually need the generic & distro-specific repository. Devel
is for testers ]

Thanks once more to all the contributors and users
