[1] Netscape now has full 1.1 support - how is it?

I didn't see any other recent messages on this, so I thought I'd
post...

Netscape finally released the developers release of its full 1.1
support, you can get it from:

http://developer.netscape.com/software/index.html?content=jdk/download.html

I tried it out against some of the sample 1.1 applets at the Javasoft
site, and it worked great - but I was wondering how it worked for
larger apps, and if anyone has encountered any major problems with it.
I was especially curious if the RMI support worked well now.

Unfortunately, it's only for Win95/NT at this time, but that will change
pretty quickly I suspect, now that the 'standard' platform is finished.
