Native Java JDK 1.3.1 Support For FreeBSD

Posted by simoniker on from the latest-and-greatest-revisited dept.

ap writes "Justin T. Gibbs, of the FreeBSD Foundation, announced today the availability of a native binary release of the Java JDK 1.3.1 for FreeBSD. He also mentioned that more attention will now be focused on providing a release of the 1.4.x JDK. Such developments should allow for FreeBSD to be better suited for enterprise uses."

    Kernel collector: Bring out your dead!

    Troll: Here's one.

    Kernel collector: Ninepence.

    BSD:I'm not dead!

    Kernel collector: What?

    Troll: Nothing. Here's your ninepence.

    BSD: I'm not dead!

    Kernel collector:'Ere. He says he's not dead!

    Troll:Yes, he is.

    BSD:I'm not!

    Kernel collector:He isn't?

    Troll:Well, he will be soon. He's very outdated.

    BSD:I'm getting updates!

    Troll: No, you're not. You'll be stone dead in a moment.

    Kernel collector: Oh, I can't take him like that. It's against regulations.

    BSD: I don't want to go off the net!

    Troll: Oh, don't be such a microkernel.

    Kernel collector: I can't take him.

    BSD: I feel stable!

    Troll:Well, do us a favour.

    Kernel collector: I can't.

    Troll: Well, can you hang around a couple of processes? He won't be long.

    Kernel collector:No, I've got to go to Microsofts. They've lost 4 today.

    Troll:Well, when's your next round?

    Kernel collector:Thursday.

    BSD:I think I'll go for a compile.

    Troll:You're not fooling anyone, you know. Look. Isn't there something you can do?

    BSD: [singing]
    I have Java! I have Java!

    *Twack*
    Troll: Ah, thanks very much.

    Kernel collector: Not at all. See you on Thursday.
