Hmm, didn't mean to open a can of worms here. I agree that it's more important
to have the core stuff done, and to that end I volunteer to do java.text, which
no one really wants to have to implement and/or use, but hey, it's part of the
spec.
After that, maybe I will have the time to combine Paul's 1.0 javax.servlet
implementation with my 1.1 javax.servlet.http implementation and/or work on
CORBA (which, even though I'm familiar with the subject matter, is going to be a
major project.)
Depending on how much time I can eke out of my week, java.text could be done in
some half-assed fashion in a week or two.
