Ok, yeah, that's probably a bit over the edge since I'm chronically a very loud person and it was actually suppose to amuse you. ;-) Currently, I still have to track down a SIGUSR1 delivery bug and then look at the HotSpot sources again to see if it actually is suppose to work with green threads. I could have sworn that it doesn't or was missing critical files needs for this. After that, I'm not sure what's needed next for me to do. BTW, no WINE engineer position for now. The group I interviewed with isn't ready to deal with a production engineering staff just yet. bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
