Subject: guavac release, version 0.2.5
Organization: Effective Edge Technologies

I have placed a new version of guavac up for public ftp.  It mostly 
concentrates on improving compatibility with Sun's compiler, and also 
adds a few cosmetic changes.

I am including the release note from this release at the end of this 
message, although it is basically unchanged from previous releases.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                            Announcing: guavac 0.2.5
                     A free compiler for the Java language
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the eleventh public release of guavac, a portable compiler for Java.
This release fixes bugs from 0.2.4 and improves compatibility with Sun's
JDK compiler.

Guavac can be freely used and distributed under the terms of the Gnu Public
License.  This is an early release and may be difficult for non-programmers
to compile and use.

All materials needed to compile a HotJava/Netscape compliant applet are
included in the guavac distribution.  NO proprietary code from Sun is needed,
so other tool writers should feel free to include guavac in their systems.

Guavac was written in C++ to compile on any Unix system.  This has been
tested under Solaris 2.x, SunOS 4.x, Iris 5.3, HP/UX 9, and Linux 1.x 
using gcc-2.7.2 and libg++-2.7.1 and binutils-2.6, but other operating systems
should work without any major changes.
*****************************************************************************
* You absolutely need these, or later, versions, of gcc, libg++ and binutils *
******************************************************************************

A sparse little blurb about guavac as well as links to a few JDK demo applets
compiled by guavac can be found here:
     http://http.cs.berkeley.edu/~engberg/guavac

Guavac sources are available here:
     ftp://summit.stanford.edu/pub/guavac

Guavac sources are mirrored at these locations:
     ftp://ftp.Germany.EU.net/pub/programming/languages/java/guavac
     ftp://sunsite.mff.cuni.cz/Languages/Java/guavac
     ftp://sunsite.auc.dk/pub/languages/java/guavac

A mailing list has been established at Effective Edge for guavac users and
developers to exchange ideas and solutions.  To join the list, send mail to:
     majordomo@eecs.com
With this in the body (not the subject) of the message:
     subscribe guavac

We are developing guavac as part of a much larger project to implement a
distributed collaborative space using Java bytecode within a MUD-like system.
For this, we have a much greater interest in a robust, publicly used Java
compiler than proprietary code that only one company can support, so we are
offering guavac under the terms of the Gnu Public License.  For (non-
exclusive) alternate licensing terms, Java-related consulting/support,
or technology parterships, contact Effective Edge at:
     info@eecs.com
