I'm interested in using the CLASSPATH libraries in combination with
several VMs, and am sure that as I read the code I'll have questions or
comments on implementation. However, a great effort seems to have been
expended to be anal about legal issues, so I'd like to know what I
cannot say on the mailing list to avoid polluting it.

I've read portions of Sun's JDK source code and have signed their
non-commercial use license. I've used mocha to decompile portions of the
javax packages that don't come with source. I've read sections of the
internals of swing. Of course I've also read chunks of Kaffe and Japhar,
but presumably that's OK.

Can I:

- point out bugs in the existing classpath code so that someone else
could correct them? If I do this, should I avoid including "fixed" code?

- point out errors in the documentation in classpath?

- suggest ways of designing classpath for improved portability?

thanks
alex
