Bill, Why are your feelings hurt? Has the FF taken away your right to hack on the 1.4 sources? Has it? If your happiness in life comes from making the coolest, best, most elite port of the 1.4 sources, then keep on truckin, dude. You're not shy about how smart and clever you are, so I hope to see you succeed. When you're done, you or someone else can host your patches and people can download and build them. Meanwhile, the rest of us that don't care a wit about politics will use whatever Java package works. Having a binary package that can be downloaded and installed without 6 hours of compile time is a huge win for me. But if your work turns out better, then maybe I'll switch yours. Think of the FF as giving all of us choices. Or, think of the FF as giving you a challenge. Can you rise to that challenge, Bill?
