<p>We currently have support for 2.2.x, 3.x, 4.x and 5-CURRENT FreeBSD
Systems for &jdk; 1.1.8. Anything prior to FreeBSD 2.2 (such as FreeBSD
2.1.7.1) is not supported.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/">FreeBSD
Foundation</a> has negotiated a license with Sun
Microsystems to distribute FreeBSD binaries for the Java
Runtime Environment (JRE&trade;) and Java Development Kit
(&jdk;).</p>
<p><b>Newsflash!</b> The FreeBSD Foundation has secured a license from
Sun Microsystems to distribute a native FreeBSD version of both the
Java Development Kit (JDK) and the Java Runtime Environment (JRE&trade;).
Thanks to the great efforts of the FreeBSD Java team, these should
be available for inclusion with a future release of FreeBSD.
See <a href="newsflash.html">Newsflash page</a> for details.</p>
<p>The current release of the JDK and JRE available via the
FreeBSD Foundation is 1.3.1. These binaries have been
tested and certified to run with FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE, but
may also work on other 4.X releases. These binaries are
not intended for use with FreeBSD 5.X, due to a binary
compatibility issue the FreeBSD Foundation is working with
the FreeBSD release engineering team to resolve.</p>
<p>For further information about downloading the JDK and JRE
binaries for FreeBSD, please see the <a
href="http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml">FreeBSD
Foundation Java Downloads</a> page.</p>
