Hi!
There is a PowerPC version of Java from IBM, available for Linux, AIX and
z/OS.
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/jdk/
You need to register for a download.
The Linux version works okay on Gentoo Linux, at least it did on my previous
system, a Power Mac G4 MDD.
Available is 1.4, 1.5 and 1.6 in both 32-bit and in 64-bit versions.
If such a port will also work in the underlaying Unix of Mac OS X I don't
know.
It is clear though that Sun's version and Apple's versions of Java 1.6 are
Intel-only (x86 and maybe x86-64).
Anyway, I'd also be interested in ways to get Java 1.6 on Mac OS X/PPC.
