I suppose this would mean that SUN is treating u like the commercial guys, and not giving u crippled code. I'm curious as to why SUN does not want to support u folks with a JCK. this would at least make ur port as good as the blackdown folks. And i'm sure as good as the BSDi folks, as i would presume that BSDi would also have to have passed the JCK tests before the bin's are released for public consumption. would it be possible to also get the Java3D code. I'd also like to complete that code so I can get into the vrml/java code that some folks have been doing. If not, i'll have to go the the i386/linux side of things :{ Can u tell me where the official bsd/java web page is . Access to the Machine ? secured session via a secure VPN ?
