OK, this looks like at least a "semi-official" source :-).
Does iPlanet plan on continually updating their support for the JSDK
spec (or whatever it becomes)? How will they work those releases into
the normal releases for iWS/NES? (For the near future at least, it
looks like keeping up with the JSDK spec may require more frequent
updates than might otherwise be expected from a mature web server like
iWS/NES.)
