It follows the same rule 0 as the rest of the project: http://openjdk.java.net/contribute/ i.e. your patch needs to come in under SCA. > For example, GNU classpath has a kqueue-based selector implementation. > Can we "steal" that? No. But you can ask Casey and his coauthors if they are interested in contributing the implementation, of course. See also the following recent thread on the freebsd-java list about another implementation: http://old.nabble.com/OpenJDK-6-7-kqueue-based-NIO-provider-td27385917.html Another alternative could be to delegate the kqueue wrapping work to a third party library like libev or libevent. cheers, dalibor topic -- ******************************************************************* Dalibor Topic Tel: (+49 40) 23 646 738 Java F/OSS Ambassador AIM: robiladonaim Sun Microsystems GmbH Mobile: (+49 177) 2664 192 Nagelsweg 55 http://openjdk.java.net D-20097 Hamburg mailto:dalibor.to...@sun.com Sitz der Gesellschaft: Sonnenallee 1, D-85551 Kirchheim-Heimstetten Amtsgericht München: HRB 161028 Geschäftsführer: Thomas Schröder, Wolfgang Engels Vorsitzender des Aufsichtsrates: Martin Häring
