The Witango Compiler for Java is now feature complete and it is in QA and undergoing stress testing. It should go into beta testing in Q1 and be available Q2 next year. It will be tightly integrated into the dev studio so you will be able to deploy to a J2EE server via a menu selection in the dev studio.
