Cool.
I'd personally like to see the Biss-TVT AWT rescucitated. The thing
draws on the Linux frame buffer without GTK. This is great for embedded.
You may also want to take the Qt4 peers and make them work with Qtopia
on FBs. That might be simpler.
I can't go down the Qt road...
Is there a licensing hurdle here?
Not really. If you want the old Kaffe/Biss/Transvirtual AWT code merged
into GNU Classpath, then you need to contact all the copyright owners to
assign their copyrights to the FSF.
That may be a bit of work, though. and you'd still need to fix the old
Kaffe AWT code to work with different peer model in GNU Classpath, among
other things.
I am not saying it's impossible, but no one who embarked on that
adventure came back with a fully working patch yet.
Will look into this over time.
