- we've got some free java VMs: - IBM has interesting stuff (with closed class libraries) - kaffe (I was able to run tomcat reasonably after patching a bit in C and a little bit more in java.lang) Putting Sun's swing classes in the path I was able to run some of Sun's jfc demos. Missing pieces are due to the minimalistic approach taken by the kaffe people, but they can be easily worked around. - kaffe is slow but takes soooo little memory... I wonder if it is suitable for production sites. - I imagine someone out there (in the cold) is working in having a way to interpret C# in a java VM (maybe slightly extended). If not, this could make for an interesting jakarta project. - There is definitely interest on having alternatives to RMI, EJB and other closed J2EE technologies in jakarta. ...
