Are you, personally, going to package JDK for PPC? Are you stenously object to someone else packaging JDK for PPC? If neither, what are you wasting the bandwidth about? So Rahul's wording was not perfect, big deal! By the way, surely you know that VMs are dime a dozen, and the libraries are the real problem. I am quite happy with my gcj and Classpath, which execute my critical Java applications today, but there are still people out there would would benefit from (compatibility with) all bugs in Sun JDK libraries. -- Pete -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
