And I think we'll get there.
I'm currently doing some Java development on a FreeBSD-CURRENT
workstation using a native jdk14. It's good enough for testing
components in a J2EE application server (JBoss), and performance is
comparable to that seen on an equivalent Windows workstation.
Would I use FreeBSD as a production J2EE server reliant on 1.4.1? No.
But the time is coming, so don't write FreeBSD off just yet.
Ciao,
Sheldon.
