That would be great. Collaboration and sharing is awesome. However, I believe there's a legal snarl---I believe any and all contributions to OpenJDK must be original work by the contributor (i.e. the contributor must own the copyright). I don't even think contributors are allowed to look at foreign source code if it is related to their contribution. Can someone confirm/deny my belief? Another approach to getting the GNU Classpath implementation would be to ask the copyright owners (FSF and Casey Marshall <c...@gnu.org>) to donate their code. Cheers, Michael
