Thanks and welcome! Your first commit has been a big hit (at least for
me since it allowed me to run some interesting AWT thingies)!

One little nitpick. It helps alot if the commit message is the same as
the ChangeLog entry. That seems like double bookkeeping (and it is a
bit) it really helps when looking at a cvs log the see what the change
was really part of (was it a lone fix or a fix in all related files at
the same time). And since the cvs commit message (and not the actualy
ChangeLog diff) is send to the commit-classpath list it makes it
immediatly clear what changed (so you don't have to click on every link
to the savannah viewcvs page).

Cheers,

Mark
