Lang,
That last link was very helpful. It looks like there are some things
missing in the java.awt.geometry package. I'm fairly good with
geometry, so I'll see if I can put together some patches that add the
missing methods.
Before contributing code, please read [1], fill ACQ (Authorized Contributor
Questionnaire) and send to PMC mailing-list (priv...@harmony.apache.org).

I'll read the wiki about contributing first.
Thanks,
The Sunburned Surveyor

I think the JAPI comparison result page [1] is also a good reference to see
if there anything need to be improved. It gives you a general idea of which
methods are missing or incorrect.
Cheers,
Lang

You can see what the community is doing and has already done in JIRA [1].
However, I think if you are very new to harmony, it's better that you
take a
look at the harmony wiki [2] first so that you can get deeper
understanding
of the project and the community, although I supposed that some of the
TODO
information in wiki might be out of time.
By the way, I'm sort of new bee to harmony too (I got to know the
community
two years ago but has not got deep enough understanding of harmony and
not
contributed much yet) and I'm also a pure java developer. We can more
discussion about contribution to harmony :)

Thanks Daniel and Regis for the information about Apache Harmony.
I'll see if I can get the source code for the class library downloaded
today and I will begin looking at the java.util modules. Is there a
task list for the work that needs to be done in the class library or a
person that supervises this work?
Thank you again for the direction.

I'd like to know if any components of the Harmony Project are being
implemented in Java. Are any of the class libraries that will ship
with the JVM being written in Java?
Is the main JVM implemented in C?
I'm just trying to figure out where I might contribute code to the
project as a Java programmer. My C programming skills are very crude.
Thanks,
The Sunburned Surveyor
Harmony Project could divide to three part: VM, class library and jdk
tools.
VM is mainly implemented in C/C++ and a few Java code
The most of class library code is written in Java, and a few C code to
deal
with file system and network etc. If you are a pure Java programmer,
class
library is a good place to start, I suggest you to start from jndi,
sql,
beans, java.util modules, they are pure Java code.
