      The VM index page currently has the following text:
      * Standard HotSpot VM Options for Microsoft Windows | Solaris, Linux, or Mac OS X operating system - The command-line options supported by the Java HotSpot VMs are described on the reference pages for the Java application launcher.
      * Non-standard Java HotSpot VM Options - Non-standard options recognized by the current implementations of the VMs, but not necessarily by future or non-Oracle implementations, are described on this page.

      In JDK 8, all options are now documented in the java command man page. So we don't need to differentiate between standard and non standard options.

      Remove the bullet about non-standard options. Rephrase remaining content under Tools with appropriate links as follows:
      Some operating characteristics of the Java HotSpot VM can be controlled by the use of command-line flags. See documentation for the Java application launcher.
      * Windows operating system
      * Solaris, Linux, or Mac operating system


      Also, remove the The HotSpot Home Page link under More Information.
