Well I suppose they [sun] have to port 1.3 themselves, since they bought
Star Divison. If they really want to release a Java version of Star Office
of a portal then something has to be down to improve the performance
of Java on Linus. This means they have to port HotSpot and the rest of
the extended JDK elements JNDI, JMF, JavaSound, EJB to make it viable
, at least for business to take it serious enough.
