Good to hear from you again.  Glad to hear you are feeling better.  A couple
of points on Swing (which may be wrong since I don't know it that well).  I
believe that Swing is by the spec supposed to be made up of 100% pure Java
lightweight components.  Which means that Swing basically has to depend on
awt.  It's something to look at.  Probably we will need a working awt before
Swing.
