Well, not in this case because the Blackdown effort is clearly a very
closed effort. At least, I haven't been able to discover how to become
involved in the port, and questions on this list about how to contribute
have been left unanswered (or vaguely answered at best).
Even though I appreciate the work of the Blackdown people, they're
terribly bad at the publicity side, and probably doing too much with
too few. I really hope that IBM gets a 1.2 JDK out quickly so we don't
need to rely on a port of the reference JDK anymore.
