My understanding (this release that you link to is very nebulous...it 
doesn't really say the level of support) from what SB has said on this 
list is that they are just giving the team early-access to the source 
code AND the compatibility checker (JCK).  Is this all they are doing, or 
are there engineers at Sun Micro actually writing Linux code?  And, will 
this port be advertised/available on Sun's page with the other ports 
(Solaris and Windows)?  Steve?
