State-Changed-From-To: open->closed

State-Changed-Why: 
Committed, thanks.

I agree there is more updating working to be done here.  Couple of notes:

1. This gets rid of references to a removed port and likely also stops people
from jumping through hoops and coming asking for the patchsets for it.  I
think that alone is good enough to get this committed in its present state.

2. The OpenJDK6 port may continue to be maintained by the community in terms
of security patches even though Oracle has EOL'ed JDK6.  Not clear yet if that
will happen, but the IcedTea people certainly have expressed some interest in
doing that.
