Keep in mind that bits don't land until March 2007.
Keep in mind that any such actions will have to be in a post fc7
timeframe if Warren's statement is correct and the re-licensed code
isn't publically available until March 2007. A detailed discussion as
to what to do is a bit premature until we have the re-licensed code in
hand. I really think it would be a bad idea to rely on a promise to
re-license, to make technical decisions which could impact the fc7
release. Its enough to know everyone is aware about it and the
timescales involved. Work on gcj can't stop if Sun's relicensed
release isn't available soon enough for the fc7 testing timeframe.

I'm glad to dissapoint you -- seems that compiler and HotSpot VM are
already in Subversion at https://openjdk.dev.java.net/source/browse/openjdk/
(Note: I haven't actually tried to check it out/compile, just browsed
the repo... so I might be wrong assuming it's all you need to build
these two ;-)
