Ok, but you can pick up books that document the Class Libraries and the language specification too. I'm sure, sooner, or later, there'll be a Jini book too, but I'll forgo that point for now. I simply think that we're first and foremost concerned with getting a JVM, compiler and base class library, which I think could be done by people not exposed to the SCSL or any SCSL protected material. ---- Cris J H
