That sounds fine to me. I had once looked at what libgcj did noticed the great similarity between the two. One thing I would mention about what I wanted to accomplish with the Classpath implementation. I essentially wanted this to be useful as a charset conversion facility outside of the standa

I spent a little time recently looking at the character set conversion code in Classpath and libgcj. I don't have time to do the merge right now, but I thought I'd post my recommendations for posterity. Both code bases take roughly the same approach. Only details differ. My recommendation is to
