What do porting team menbers think about this? Personally, I don't care a whole lot. Note, I don't *plan* on making anymore JDK1.1 releases as I'd like to focus my efforts on JDK1.2. However, if there are *significant* bugs in JDK1.1 (feel free to convince me) in the FreeBSD portions of the JDK and/or Sun releases a new JDK1.1 release *and/or* someone submits working ELF patches for a JDK1.1 port, make a new release. > > Who should deal with this problem? > > Maybe the best is working of Sun. But the realistic solution is dealing > with it by powerful porting team. The porting team has no 'power' per-se. We just make a port, and have no relationship with Sun. :( Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
