1    New for the subsequent release:
2    
3    * The java.net.HttpURLConnection implementation no longer buffers the
4      entire response body in memory.  This means that response bodies
5      larger than available memory can now be handled.
6    
7    * The Andrew Watson, Vice President and Technical Director of the Object
8      Management Group, has officially assigned us 20 bit Vendor Minor Code Id:
9      0x47430 ("GC") that will mark remote Classpath - specific system exceptions.
10      Obtaining the VMCID means that GNU Classpath now is a recogniseable type of
11      node in a highly interoperable CORBA world.
12    
13    * Classpath now includes the first working draft to support the RMI over
14      IIOP protocol. The current implementation is capable for remote invocations,
15      transferring various Serializables and Externalizables via RMI-IIOP protocol.
16      It can flatten graphs and, at least for the simple cases, is interoperable
17      with Sun's jdk 1.5.
18    
19    Runtime interface changes:
20    
21    * Changed implementation of VMClassLoader.getPackage(s) : new method
22      VMClassLoader.getBootPackages should be implemented by the vm, and sould
23      return a string array of boot package names ("java.lang", "java.net", ...).
24      Feedback from vm implementors for usability and relevance of the
25      getBootPackages method would be greatly appreciated.
