What does this mean? I don't see a reference and I don't recall any previous posts about it.

Come to the meeting and you'll see :-)
Ok now seriously... Bozhidar was going through our Java,Java/FAQ wiki pages (as agreed on our last SIG meeting) and noticed there are a lot of outdated references to GCJ, plus it might be confusing for new users. So we were thinking about separating information for GCJ (ergo Java 1.5) into a separate wiki page.
Our Java wiki pages are really in need of an update, any help would be appreciated. For example I just noticed wrong link to old mailing list (already fixed).

I would but unfortunately I can't make it. Besides, you kind of need to know what's being discussed before you can discuss it :-)

That makes sense. I agree some updates are needed and I've done a few myself in the past.
I wouldn't take GCJ as being equivalent to Java 1.5. It already contains some 1.6 API calls and will gain more in the future. It's also missing some 1.5 calls. What's present tends to be defined by what's used rather than any specific API definition. As the TCK licensing currently prevents GCJ from being tested for conformance to either 1.5 or 1.6, there's not much point in going strictly down the route of obeyance to one standard or another.
