I have gone through the distfiles and cannot see anything which indicates there is a freebsd port available or information about incorporation of latest sun upgrades. Does anyone know what is the best way to go about this. Will the sun downlaod install OK on FreeBSD 5.3. What is the best source of information about java on freebsd.
