I second that second :-) JDK 1.2 has some really nice features and it's

Thank you porters!

I sent in the license agreement for JDK 1.1 source back in January, but
they gave me 1.2 source. Is there some way to get 1.1 source and the
current linux diffs for it? I'd be more than happy to help work on it if I
can get the sources and diffs.
