Dear friends,
I am writing you this message to ask for action.
A few short days ago, Microsoft released the final Win95/NT version of the
Internet Explorer 4.0 web browser. This browser, as expected, does not
contain an implementation of Java that is fully-compliant with the Java
core platform. It may have a compatible JVM, but it does not contain the
full class libraries of the JDK 1.1 implementations of Java. The omissions
seem to be intentional.
Let's be clear, IMHO Microsoft is deliberately trying to destroy the chance
for Java to fulfill its "write once, run anywhere" promise. Java
