No kidding. But, that's not as important for me, since I really needed to look at the Sun sources for doing paid work doing Java development, since sometimes the best documentation is the sources for understanding how things work. For paid work, I'm less worried about how it affects doing free work than I would be normally, since paid work puts food on the table which is more important than how free my code is. (But, when I can have both all the better!). Nate
