Fine! Do you have any estimates as to when it will be available? I really think that it should be done RSN, because in its current state JDK is hardly an usable one. So far I encountered three serious problems with it: 1. Unability to use JIT; 2. Undefined references to fork1() in some of the shared files; 3. Problem with uppercase letters. I was also observing some rather weird problems with networking in Jedit, but have not performed any investigation to make at least minimal problem report. Nevertheless, I would like to thank you and all members of Java porting team for your truly great work, please keep doing! -Maxim To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
