Its also not something that can really happen in a distributed sense easily, so its pretty much a one person job in some sense. I'm certainly not the only person who can work on the fixes, although I have to be careful about what I post in terms of code which demonstrates the problem. To be 100% on the safe side I basically need to make up an example piece of code that demonstrates the problem rather than post the code for the actual test itself. I hope that clarifies things a little. -- 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
