Subject: SPARC/Solaris Alpha 2 Sources Released

The Alpha2 Source Release of Java(tm) and HotJava(tm) from Sun
Microsystems is now available for downloading. 

The Alpha2 source release contains the full sources for the Alpha2
binary release for Sun Solaris 2.3 and 2.4 SPARC-based machines.
It is being made available for people to inspect, rebuild or port.
Do not download the source release if you expect that it will 
immediately run on any configuration besides SPARC/Solaris 2.X.

To determine whether the Alpha2 Source Release is for you, start by
reading http://java.sun.com/source.html.  This will be your guide
to downloading the release.  In particular, be sure to read the
source release license, and do not download the release if you
object to the terms of that license.  

Ports are currently under way within our group for Windows95/Windows
NT, MacOS and Solaris x86.  A port of Java or HotJava is a non-trivial
task.  People seriously interested in porting Java and HotJava are
strongly encouraged to contact us directly for guidance.  The java-
porting mailing list is also intended to support porting efforts.
To subscribe to this mailing list, see http://java.sun.com/mail.html 

There are currently no mirror sites for the source release.  If some
become available, they will be announced here.  Specific problems
with ftp downloading or with the server machine should be addressed
to src-admin@java.sun.com.  The source release mechanism is still
being debugged.  If you have problems with it please report them
to src-admin@java.sun.com.
