I've been asked to post my weekly summary of the postings in the harmony-dev mailing list at http://deltalabs.at to this list too, so here it is. It is also listed in the Java RSS Feed of deltalabs at http://deltalabs.at/?q=taxonomy/term/3/0/feed
Another week is over and it's again time for this weeks summary of the postings at the harmony-dev mailing list. I added links to the emails in the archive of this list to each paragraph to give you a starting point for detail recherche if you are interested in this topic. First important thing: we have contributions! Ian Darwin sent in his partial javap replacement, and Mladen Turk volunteered vor working on a jar replacement. He also contributed a native-only implementation: http://apvfs.sourceforge.net/.

This is basically explained here: http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/get-involved.html, and following the mailing list for some time is surely helpful too. Hopefully some time in the future this article series will be a good starting point too ;-) Usman Bashir has finished a paper about the harmony project he wants to present at the open source conference in Lahore Pakistan. He posted it for public review in his blogs http://spaces.msn.com/members/gripusa and http://usmanbashir.blogspot.com/, and Jeffrey McManigal emailed him some suggestions (not posted to the list). So, Usman, I hope you got the help you wanted and good luck for your presentation.
