Perhaps the best place to track JDK-1.2 development is at the Sun site
since they have offered to port JDK-1.2 to Linux.

    somewhat new to Linux and Java so I have to ask this question: does the
    Linux port support the SWING API ? Will swing apps run in the CDE for Linux?
    
Swing is written in java.

What is the "CDE for Linux"?  I'll assume that you're asking about the
window manager for Linux.  Swing has no run-time dependencies (though
it's appearance and behavior may be slightly different...) on the
window manager; however, CDE does not have a Linux port (to my
knowledge).  You'll want to look into KDE;  otherwise, just use the
wm shipped with your Linux distribution.
