Yes, I'm on the list.  I must admit that I didn't do very much magic with
JDK 1.1.2 for it to be faster.  I mostly assembled patches from other
people (Keith White, Jeffrey Hsu, the Linux folks, ...)

I'm trying to follow this release of JDK 1.1.5 but I just can't keep up. 
I'm now working full time on a Java/Database product and also finishing my
thesis during the remaining few hours.  This is not a good period for me
to devote time on this project but I promise to contribute when I get the
time. 

I've released the patchkit of my JDK port to Nate, so if there's anything
worth moving from JDK 1.1.2 to 1.1.5, Nate can probably help ;-)

Regards,
Alex.
