<b>May 3, 2000:</b> Greg Lewis has just announced that the native FreeBSD
JDK 1.2.2 port has entered alpha test stage.
<br>In its current form, the port will buildand run on most FreeBSD releases
(3.4, 4.0 and 5.0 on x86) and work is being done on the others (2.2.8 on x86

little time testing the new port. While this is not a trivial task, there are
clear step-by-step insturctions on how to build and use the port.
<br>The patches may be found, as usual on:
