I think that the best course of action is to release the patchset as it currently is (I haven't heard of any showstoppers). I'll commit the port update immediately after that. Then lets wait for things to settle for a week and, assuming there haven't been any big problems, we can commit these patches to the port plus the necessary Makefile/distinfo patches. At the same time, Update 12 can be imported into the porting repo and OpenBSD and NetBSD people can give it a try too. Then in a month or two there will be a patchset 6 with official Update 12 support. I don't want to stop the release cycle now and go through all the import, build/test on multiple OSes/architectures steps again. That will not only hold up a new 1.5 patchset it will also delay 1.6.0_01 patchset that is ready to go (not to mention any OpenJDK work). -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology FreeBSD : glewis@FreeBSD.org
