Hi: I was (in part) commenting on the fact, noted earlier, that BSDi folks were mum on any Java-BSD news the day before the announcement. My impression, judging from their silence and the details (or lack thereof) in the press release is that they haven't advanced much beyond where the FreeBSD-java porting team is today. Naturally, I'm happy that any vendor supports Java on *BSD, and as you point out their port *may* be totally different, but that would seem to defy common sense. Why didn't they just call it patchset 9 for consistency? ;) John K.J.Koster wrote: > > The BSDi press release is (purposely?) vague.
