Sender: owner-freebsd-java@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org I know that a) most of the porting team is hard at work on the JDK 1.2 port and b) I'm not personally contributing code since I don't have the time at the moment. :( However, I wanted to ask if there are plans to update the 1.1 JDK to 1.1.8? On Sun's page they claim that they released 1.1.8 to close a security hole that (if I read the web pages correctly) allows an applet to construct unverified classes. They have apparently released 1.1.8 to close said hole. --- John Baldwin -- http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/ PGP Key: http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
