As you may know, I have been the gatekeeper for the JSN (Java Security &
Networking) gate for the last 4 or so years. As many of JSN and TL
(Tools & Libraries) changes are interrelated, we have been
combining/testing/integrating the JSN & TL changes together into the
MASTER workspaces. JSN has been a "subgate" of TL for several years.
I have been asked to lead a new OpenJDK infrastructure project. In
order to reduce my workload, we have decided that the JSN gate will be
End-Of-Life'd following next week's integration into TL on 20 Oct 2008.
All developers working in the JSN gate will immediately transition to
the TL gate under gatekeeper Tim Bell.
I will resync the JSN workspaces one last time on Monday, but after
that, all pulls/pushes should be done to TL.

I hope to make the JSN gate READ-ONLY at that point, not sure if I can
do that yet.
It's with mixed feelings, I've been doing this for quite a while and
have it down to an art.
