Sounds good. We need all the help we can get. Sorry for taking so
long to reply -- I've been busy moving.

Yes. I would like to eventually add more functionality to the
$classpath distribution (regexps are at the top of the list), but it's
a little too early to start doing that. Also, in the case of GNU
extensions (ie. not based on a Sun API), we might wish to make some of
them GPL'd.

I have a clean room implementation as well, that I did about a year
ago (1.0 API). :) See http://www.oryxsoft.com/projects/osl/. In fact,
you'll find code there which makes writing Servlet's a lot more
tolerable. Servlet support should be offered, but at the moment, I
don't want to get too far away from the core API's. The core stuff is
going to be plenty for us to handle.

Well, since it seems that you like parsing text, how about you write
the java.text implementation? :)
