And here is the patch for the web pages.

Note I did not include all the removed java/* contents.  Is there
anything particular you'd like to retain there?

I'd think something should go under the "Caveats" section of
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-7/changes.html
too, so people aren't surprised.
(There was never a deprecation notice in the equivalent page for GCC
6, by the way)

In my opinion, all/most of these should be restored.

Because of the historical interest?  That's a good point, and perhaps

But then it should be probably moved somewhere where Gerald won't have to
spent time maintaining those pages (verification of URLs in there, updating
them when they are moved etc.).  Also to make it clear that GCJ is no longer
supported.

The last part is moot, as we should strive to not move pages and thus break links.

I meant updating URLs in the pages when they refer to external web pages
which move over time (or switch from http to https, or disappear, etc.).  Gerald
does a great job handling that, but if there are too many pages for
historical purpose only, it will make his work harder.

We can redirect to somewhere else.
