Right. The question is whether there is a free-software project to produce a java plugin for mozilla. So I'm really wondering about that. I know that there has been a lot of talk about using gcj to get the java parts of openoffice working, but it seems to me that a free-as-in-speech-and-source-code mozilla/firefox plugin to implement java applets in mozilla would be a HUGE deal. I don't know much about java and gij/gcj, but I think that there is some connection between the gij/gcj runtime and X11 to produce graphics. I've also read that the big problem is not so much with the interpreter/compiler as with the class libraries, which require some reverse engineering. Oh, well, maybe some day. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by Yahoo. Introducing Yahoo! Search Developer Network - Create apps using Yahoo!
