Full story at: http://www.javaworld.com/jw-11-1998/jw-11-iw-jdklinux.html?110298txt and http://java.sun.com/pr/1998/11/pr981102-01.html Porters: Now the big question, can we get the source to the Linux port (Should I start calling them)? And will that help our porting effort more than the Solaris code we already have? (My first guess would be yes.) --- Patrick S.
