Speak now, or forever hold your peace!

Unless someone objects by the end of today, I plan to delete the
java.net/javaee-security-spec~misc repository (github/security-proposals
is the current/up-to-date source of truth for this unofficial material).

The other two repos were were previously deleted, but seem to be in some
sort of zombie state.

I will mark all three of these repos as "not needed -- don't migrate or
archive" when java.net goes away.
