Deserializers

The documentation reads:

"Built-in Serializers and Deserializers

Gson has built-in serializers and deserializers for commonly used classes whose 
default representation may be inappropriate. 

Here is a list of such classes: 

1. java.net.URL to match it with strings like 
"http://code.google.com/p/google-gson/".
2. java.net.URI to match it with strings like "/p/google-gson/".
You can also find source-code for some commonly used classes such as JodaTime 
at this page."

Notice that there is no "list of such classes". And I haven't any idea what was 
meant by those numbers items 1 and 2. I suspect it's a documentation template 
issue?

In any case, it seems important to document what the built-in serializers and 
deserializers are. I came looking for this documentation and can't find any.

(This is on the current google code site as of this writing, no particular 
version)
