If there is a QQ client written in Java, then the Java bytecode should run fine on Solaris / OpenSolaris without a recompile, so if tencent wants to encourage people to use QQ then why don't they just put the Java version up for download on their web page and then East Asian OpenSolaris users can download it and use it as their IM client? -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
