Nope, it was revitalized when aliens from the 26th century brought had
lost one of their space crafts to Tim Wilkinson. He's now
incrementally releasing some of this 26th century technology into the
Kaffe VM. ;-)
I have to say, I'm impressed with he power of the rumour
mill. Microsoft didn't buy out Transvirtual, they merely payed for the
development of some elements of the KaffeVM which made it compatible
with their own proprietary extensions. Despite the evil that MS
represents I have to say that they've treated Transvirtual MUCH better
than Sun.
