 Jim,
 
 You said,
 I've just been informed that Nihonsoft doesn't have the best reputation
 in Japan in the free software community, and may be involved in some
 activities that violate the GPL.  I don't know the whole story, since I
 can't read Japanese.
 
 Any pointers?
 Fortunately, I can read Japanese :-)

There's been a fair amount of private emails on this that haven't been
forwarded to the list.

Nihonsoft got back to me with a response, which I asked if I could
forward.  I posted it to the new [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list:

Again, just because we accepted a sponsorship doesn't mean that we are
offering any type of endorsement to the people making the donation.

We've got several offers from people that would like to sponsor the site
for the next few months.  We'll have to figure out the best way to
handle the offers - I'd like to keep the whole sponsorship program
low-key, and non-controversial.  Our costs are pretty low, after all.

Feel free to continue the discussion on the new
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list (I've set the Reply-To: header).

Cheers,

 - Jim

[kaffe] Cygwin status update

2003-12-15 Thread Dalibor Topic 
hi all,

I've been playing with Cygwin  kaffe last week, and I've got patches to 
gradually merge in, that let kaffe build again as a static binary. It 
doesn't fully work, as the kjc step to build rt,jar crashes. 
Investigation about it shows me that the old findJarFile bug still 
strikes on Cygwin. This time I was able to figure out a little more, though.

The problem seems to be that the first few bytes of the findJarFile 
function in kaffe/kaffevm/jar.c somehow get overwritten. I've tried to 
debug it with awatch in GDB, but didn't suceed in catching the 
overwriting happen. So I'd be glad to hear tips  tricks on dealing with 
that type of bugs from other developers.

cheers,
dalibor topic
p.s. I haven't attacked the signal context problem yet. I want to merge 
in the patches I have now first.

[kaffe] core dump / assertion in threading

2003-12-15 Thread jrandom 
core dump / assertion in threading

Hey all,

doing some debugging and wanted to get the URLConnection fixes, so I
pulled the latest from cvs a few minutes ago.  make check passed all
144 tests, but its dumping core at new times when running jetty.

Its also eating ram more than usual (going up to 64m under moderate use
in 30-60 mins instead of 12-24 hours like before).  I'm going to keep
debugging to see what I can find out, but any advice is highly appreciated.

gracias,
-jrandom
