Jeff tried to get "official release" which is still 1.3. You must build your own version, like Tom told you. Problem is that each jdk must be certified with Sun, and until JDK is in such working order that Sun will certify it, you must build your own. When JDK is certified we can release it as binaries (like in all other systems)... So good luck, if yous till have problems contact me offlist, and we will see how we can help you... Andy >
