My thinko about microwindows. I've read about it on the web somewhere, and 
thought it was part of pocketlinux kaffe open vm custom edition. There seems 
to be a port available here:
http://web.media.mit.edu/~lifton/proj/E-book/technical/

I hope that even semi-functional stuff in the development tree can be 
motivational to someone to go ahead and add what's missing, thus I'd like to 
see the new platforms being merged in. After 1.0.7 is released, of course.

Porting over classlibrary bugfixes from custom edition should also be 
reasonably easy, for those parts of the kaffe.org class libraries that don't 
seem to be actively hacked upon, like java.applet (last functional change on 
2000-07-21, my more recent changes were just cleanup).
