Hello all, I was just wondering if there was any way where we -- as a group -- could push to make the default jdk / jre the diablo packaged versions because frankly I don't want a system to assume that I want to compile the 1.5 jdk / jre from scratch by first installing the linux v1.4.2 of the jdk, and having to go through the long and arduous process of compiling java, for little or no benefit (the only benefit would be for different architectures that aren't available in diablo-jdk/-jre, like sparc, powerpc). In that case one would be required to do the above process. It would be nice to add this in though so someone doesn't accidentally take all that time and disk space compiling all for naught. Thanks, -Garrett
