We really must include a reference to GNU Classpath.  It is still being
actively developed (last commit 2 weeks ago).  I'm also not entirely
sure that GCJ is dead.  There's at least still *some* activity in gcc's
libjava and gcc/java directories.  I think the respective maintainers
should be contacted before we decide that their software is obsolete.

Thanks,
Brandon
