I was hoping to provide feedback on these, but I currently can't build the tree. The corba build fails with: /bin/sh: Check_ALT_JDK_IMPORT_PATH/bin/javac: not found In the past setting ALT_BOOTDIR=/usr/local/jdk-1.6.0 was good enough to build the tree from scratch. Have things changed an now we need to keep an old 1.7 build around to point ALT_JDK_IMPORT_PATH at? I'll keep looking into what's going with my build... Regards, -Kurt
