Description Josh Nichols (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

As has been announced on the gentoo-dev and gentoo-java mailing lists, we have enacted a package free for Java packages. The purpose of this is to focus our attention on the integration of our new build system, ie new eclasses and a new version of java-config, into the main tree.

All version bumps and package request bugs should be blocked by this bug.

Additionally, this does _not_ mean that bumps that address security and other critical bugs shouldn't be occuring.

With the release of the new Java system, we are done with the package freeze. Please note, that new packages / versions should be using the new Java eclasses.

Removing all blockees to avoid unnecessary bugspam in the future.
