Dont hold you breath, 4.xxx is a dead product. As for pushing the browser market along dunno, but why would debian care which JRE Microsoft shipped (or didn't ship) with IE. Anyway, my oppinion is that this would probably be better addressed on a Java advocacy list as opposed to this, a debian-java list. - Eric -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
