JDK 1.4 port status

2001-08-28 Thread Jim Hazen 

The status page for the Blackdown 1.4 port hasn't been updated in a while.  Is
there any new news?  Is Blackdown waiting to integrate the Sun 1.4 beta 2
source?  Are they prohibited from releasing "beta" products by Sun?

I'm currently using Blackdown 1.3.1 and I love it.  It runs faster (than the Sun
version), works better, doesn't crash.  Couldn't want much more in a JVM.  I'm
looking forward to Blackdown's take on 1.4, but since their promise on 6/25 that
a beta would be available soon, I haven't heard or seen anything.  Anyone know
what's going on?

-Jim

I'm still waiting for them to finish porting 1.3.1 to the sparclinux
platform, as I need the java plugin to use with Mozilla. It's about the
only thing stopping me from junking Netscape entirely.
