Just explaining the state of play. I may have been doing other committers an injustice, however the only (FreeBSD) one I've heard from lately is Fuyuhiko-san, who had done some tests with HotSpot and had a few small patches I believe.

My only general comments are that people should be prepared to dive in and do some work before they are given repository access (but please try and coordinate whatever you are doing, through me possibly(?)). -- Greg Lewis Email : glewis@eyesbeyond.com Eyes Beyond Web : http://www.eyesbeyond.com Information Technology To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
