I don't have numbers, but Sun, BEA, IBM have millions of users that depend on those codebases for the life of their business. I've never heard of anyone using kaffe+classpath for the life of their business. Now, that's not intended to disparage Kaffe or Classpath, as I realize that like Harmony, they aren't done, but I was simply responding to the comparison of the approach to this issue that Sun, IBM and BEA take vs Kaffe/GNUCLasspath. While the point was simply that there may be things to learn from the successful commercial vendors on this, I realize now that it would have been prudent to just keep my mouth shut :) > > See > http://people.debian.org/~igloo/popcon-graphs/index.php?packages=sun-java5-jre%2Ckaffe%2Cjava-gcj-compat&show_installed=on&show_vote=on&want_percent=on&want_legend=on&beenhere=1 > What exactly are we looking at here? geir --------------------------------------------------------------------- Terms of use : http://incubator.apache.org/harmony/mailing.html To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
