I'm sorry, what do you mean by this ? We're just focused on getting the basics working reliably and not really concerned with getting a full production version out just yet. That's the eventual goal of course, but you have to take it a step at a time... The logic goes, if the core system is working well, then the things around it should also be pretty solid... So it's the core systems first. With a reduced optimization level for gcc and an initial signal handling fix, 1.4 apparently runs the Java2D demo now. My experience with it last night is that it still crashes...but i'll give it another shot sometime over the weekend and track down a couple of potential bugs. Overall, with the recent work on HotSpot and 1.4, Java under FreeBSD is starting to look like a first class act for the first time.. bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-java" in the body of the message
