I agree completely that this is interesting for java users, in that it will (hopefully) encourage Sun to support java on the BSD's. I was just saying that I wasn't going to comment on MS .Net per se on this list. I really would like to see full-fledged support for Java on FreeBSD, and I'd like to think Sun would be more of a partner in MAKING that happen, instead of it's current role of being a hassle to deal with. -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@eclipse.acs.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
