Now, what do *you* intend to do to help? I am willing to help where possible. Sending patches or bugfixes is OK (and I will do so if I come across any problems), but in my opinion this does not address the real problem. For example *I* cannot update the GNU Classpath page to list 0.99, and not 0.98, as the current version. What would you like me to do? How can I help ? -- Guillermo Rodriguez Garcia guille.rodriguez@xxxxxxxxx
