Submitter said:
: The article "Java and Jakarta Tomcat on FreeBSD" is a bit stale. It : contains stale download instructions for the JDK 1.3.1 SDK. The : language seems overly casual to me. In addition, there are some : typos and various minor English nits in the article. PR: docs/72500 Submitted by: Chris Pepper <pepper@reppep.com>

applications would be easy to install and ready to run from a single

package, or port on FreeBSD, thus making it available for the

This is not the case, unfortunately, as the &java; distribution is

Microsystems. All these ingredients must be blended together in

the right order, assembled, and compiled by the end user. With
|

such distribution philosophies at heart, it is my opinion that
|
||||
&java; will always be developer or hacker use only. I certainly

found this to be true when I needed to serve up some
