The projects are largely separate.  We have agreed to work on a joint
RMI implementation, but I don't think anyone has done any work here.
We started separately and both had done quite a bit of work before
we found out about each other.  Classpath lacks an AWT implemention,
though I am working on that.  I think we have better Java 1.2 support
than Kaffe.  Also, Kaffe's classes lack documentation.  There are
probably a few other areas of difference but mostly a lot of overlap.
