Second, SoyLatte is "substantially derived" from OpenJDK and is
therefore eligible to receive a TCK licence from Oracle. It is not
incomplete, it supports Swing and AWT via X11, which may give crappy
usability but is good enough for TCK compliance. Therefore SoyLatter
definitely can be 100% certified Java.
Since when this thing has incepted, we're talking of hypothetical
worlds. Is SoyLatte certified NOW? Is going to be? Do we know of any
initiative to have it certified? Because I don't think that the code
bits will move and incept the process for certification on their own,
right? I suppose somebody should stand up and grab the TCK, and then run
it (which I don't think it's a matter of five minutes), and provide some
repeatable results, and talk with some certification authority, etc. Did
somebody do this in the past? Not that I'm aware, but I could be wrong.
Is somebody doing it NOW?
