I just added 1.5 results to the website. Big caveats:

- The japi files for classpath, libgcj and kaffe are all still out of
date; hopefully someone can produce nightly japi files on a more
regular basis...

- The classpath japi uses HEAD rather than generics-branch. I think it
would be worthwhile to provide comparisons of both... anyone want to
produce a classpath-generics.japi.gz?

- japitools doesn't compare any of the generic aspects of the APIs
yet. We're working on it, slowly.
