Hi,
After following this story about the port. I blame is SUN for not doing
his job. SUN should have taken the Linux platform seriously from the
start and provided the porting team with early betas. They are in a war
with Micro$oft and their only way to beat them right now is not with
Solaris but with Linux. They should support the Linux platform more then
Windoze and even more then Solaris for i386, a platform that nobody is
using. And let's talk about that write-once run anywhere crap. Right now
only Windoze and Solaris run jdk1.2. What happen to the Mac, HP-UX, SGI,
Digital UNIX, IBM AIX etc... I think SUN should wake-up and support what
they advertise.
