Release Candidate 7.0.0.RC6 - jetty & hightide

[Gregw]

All,

Jetty release candidate 7.0.0.RC6 is now available as:

 * the core jetty-distribution via http://eclipse.org/jetty
 * the extended jetty-hightide via http://jetty.codehaus.org

Despite a moderate long list of minor changes, we feel that this
RC should be the last before a 7.0.0 final.   Unless a functional
bug is found in the next week, expect 7.0.0 next week.

Please give RC6 a thorough testing.
