- Progress is being made on the port.
- The Amiga is a natural platform since it has lightweight
- processes. A central internetted machine is serving as the
- code repository for the team working on the port. They have had
- success on the underlying challenges (threads, monitors, etc)
- but the AWT port is yet to come.
-
- I have high hopes for this port, as the Amiga would make
- a fine lightweight JAVA development and execution machine.
-
- I've been trying to entice the keeper of the web page to update it
- but no luck as yet. I'd take it over but I can't publish on the Web
- yet...
