I believe it is just that jdk1.4.1 is a very large and very complex application, and the jdk developers don't want to have to track libkse/libthr issues when jdk1.4.1 is still beta and requires plenty more work. I know the Java developers are trying to get jdk1.4.1 to the point it can pass Sun's TCK, so it can be distributed as a binary. > -- > Dan Eischen Tom
