We have to keep in mind that Debian does not pay no developper as Red Hat does. If Red Hat is willing to give the work back to the community (I hope they'll do), the demo was really good. If the promises will never be available it would be *very* frustrating. But I can understand Red Hat spending a lot of money to finish awt and swing (I heard this, is it true?), they maybe want to be the first distribution to provide a complete free java alternative. Debian does not have this problem. I'd be really happy if we can provide a complete free java alternative six month later (it would be no problem for me!)... but I hope it'll take less time ;-) (and it'll be available for the community). Thanks for your presentation and for your work Mark, Cheers, - -- .''`. : :' :rnaud `. `' `- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFARSSx4vzFZu62tMIRAndfAJ4hy9y1J18zewRSeKDUemEtYPmpUgCcC38S SWRiLEwzFrkzQHDwyI85reo= =7d8q -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
