If someone can modify the WWW site and send me the updated WWW page, I'd be most grateful.

Actually, I didn't sign a license that says a release must pass the compatability tests, like the Linux folks. In other words, I didn't get access to the sources early, so I have no such restriction. Heck, I don't even have a copy of the tests, so how am I expected to pass them. :) :) Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
