They will be `linux-{sun,inprise,ibm}-jdk12'. I think we could consider Blackdown's one as fundamental and original version of Linux JDK 1.2. Sun and Insprise had just made modifications or enhancements over it and IBM had made another implementation, based on Sun's work. Blackdown's credit will appear in COMMENT and/or DESCR anyway. However, `linux-blackdown-jdk12' would be acceptable for me though it's kind of too long. :) > Suggestion: > > java/blackdown-jdk12 You seem to forget the most important thing. A port which runs under the Linux mode should have the `linux-' prefix, especially when we (are to) have a native version. -- / /__ __ / ) ) ) ) / Akinori -Aki- MUSHA aka / (_ / ( (__( "If you choose not to decide you still have made a choice."
