Dear All,

We are collecting a tremendous number of JDK's. We have 1.1.8, 1.2.2 (2x),
1.3.0. As soon as someone sits down to write the Makefiles for them, 1.3.1
and 1.4 should be added to this list.

I appreciate that 1.1.8 is genuinely useful for applet development, and also
our only official native port. I don't think it's time to pull the plug on
it. Still I'd like to know how widely it's used.

The usefulness of Linux JDK 1.2.2 is less obvious. Apart from "I haven't had
time", what are your reasons not to switch to 1.3? Are there stability
issues that keep you from moving to 1.3?
