GNU classpath contribution question

[Ken Larson]

Hi,

I have read the FAQ on contributing to GNU classpath, and I am still 
left with a question:

Let's say for example standard Java defines some constant like 
FileFormat.BINARY.  The Javadoc does not specify the value of this 
constant.  I want to write a replacement for FileFormat, so I write a 
program

System.out.println(FileFormat.BINARY) and run it against Sun's 
implementation.  I find out that the value is 1, and I put that in my 
implementation.

Is this legit for the purposes of contribuing to classpath?


Thanks,
