so Java RHEL5 includes 1.4.2 and 1.5.0 RHEL6 includes 1.6.0? also, do both RHEL5 and RHEL6 include proprietary and OpenJDK, or just in RHEL6?

removed libgnomeprint and libgnomeprintui from list

You may look at

http://download.englab.brq.redhat.com/pub/rhel/nightly/latest-RHEL-6/6.0/Server/x86_64/os/Server/Packages/ and http://download.englab.brq.redhat.com/pub/rhel/nightly/latest-RHEL-6/6.0/Server/optional/x86_64/os/Packages/

however it's not authoritative. What I believe is authoritative is latest public (beta/RC) release. But the version number still may change before 6.0 GA -- you may want to strip the last number from version (e.g. gcc-4.4.4 -> gcc-4.4).

You may have a look to RHN or to Errata Tools (as I did) for RHEL 5 Java implementations. What I see: In RHEL5 we have both proprietary (IBM, Sun...) and free (OpenJDK, gcc-java) Java implementations.

* RHEL 5: 1.4.2 + 1.5.0 + 1.6.0 (from various parties, e.g. Sun, IBM... + OpenJDK)
* RHEL 6: 1.5.0 (IBM), 1.6.0 (IBM, OpenJDK) http://download.englab.brq.redhat.com/pub/rhel/rel-eng/RHEL6.0-Supplementary-20100610.0/6.0/Workstation/i386/os/Packages/

I guess I referred to some "newlib" quote which seems to me being removed.
