I was looking around with this latest announcement of Sun's Java2 1.5, since I was considering using FreeBSD on our server (amd64) instead of Linux. I made my way to Sun's java page, and then to the newest Java2 Enterprise Edition 1.4 release. Yet no FreeBSD Java? "This release of the J2EE 1.4 SDK and the Sun Java System Application Server Platform Edition 8 is available for the following platforms: Solaris 9 (SPARC and x86) Sun Java Desktop System Windows 2000 Advanced Server Windows XP Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1, 3.0" That's odd, but Linux wasn't taken very seriously either for a long time, so maybe it's under J2SE instead? Nope. Windows, Linux (x86), Linux (amd64), Solaris (SPARC), and Solaris (x86). The same for 1.4 sdk too. WTF, Right? Now I found: http://www.freebsd.org/java/ This I'm guessing is not the J2EE that you read about in Sun's Java books, but J2SE. So now I'm approaching my question. Will there ever be plans to port J2EE to FreeBSD running as a server?
