Everybody,
I seem to remember somebody complaining that there was no 'real' JDK-1.1
available for FreeBSD. As I'm also a little impaired by the lack of a 1.1
JDK, so I was wondering if somebody was currently working on a port. If not,
I might volunteer to do one. Oops, accidentally used the 'v' word :-).
However the usual lack of time, the usual work commitments etc. blah blah
mean that I would not be able to start before the end of January.
Before I start, I would actually like to get some answers to the following 
questions:
- Is there any interest for such a port? Considering my usual state of
  overworkedness, such an undertaking should make sense to more people than
  just myself. I can *probably* live with using the Linux port.

- Any others that are interested in joining this effort?

- Other comments and suggestions are welcone, of course.

BTW, please cc me on any mails as I don't currently subscribe to -hackers from
this account. Changing jobs in the next two weeks would otherwise mean that I
loose all the mail to hackers.

Timo
