I'm sorry, it clearly states in our license agreement (which I don't think I
can quote) that we have to pass JCK first. IBM has different licensing terms,
but this is not unusual -- each organization that licenses JDK works out terms,
including commercial terms with Sun, and those terms will vary. I should have
pushed harder on the pre-release w/o ability; at the time I didn't have access
to the JCK, and therefore had no knowledge of how far off getting things to
pass JCK really was.
On a happier note: we now pass one of the JCK tests, so I've changed the
runtime-vm box in the status page to green (YAY!). Thanks to Anand P. from Sun
who diagnosed and provided the fixes!
