Partial JavaWorld Awards report

Dave Shields of Jikes e-mailed me to report that while Jikes did not win the award for best compiler (who did?), Transvirtual's Kaffe VM won the best VM category, beating Sun and Microsoft. I'm happy to see Tim Wilkinson getting recognition -- I remember him from the fledgling days of Kaffe 0.1... On a side note, only 3200 of you have downloaded Jikes' source code within the first day. What are you waiting for? ;-) The previous record for Jikes in binary form was a whole 500. Anyone else know who won what at the JavaWorld Awards? update Apparently Symantec won best compiler.
