Yeah, we're definitely putting more 'simmer time' into this one... TONS of stuff has been fixed since 1.0b3.

Also, the gjc runtime ("libgcj") has just been released today.. http://sourceware.cygnus.com/java -Archie ___________________________________________________________________________ Archie Cobbs * Whistle Communications, Inc. * http://www.whistle.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
