Hi,

latest version of Kaffe, 1.1.5, uses GNU Classpath for most of the core 
libraries.

1.1.5 shows very good results on Mauve, the Free Software test suite, 
and is, judging by the Mauve results, more faithful in implementing the 
specifications than earlier versions, like 1.0.7.

So if you are interested in increased compatiblity since 1.0.7, by all 
means give 1.1.5 a try, it contains all of GNU Classpath, except for ~20 
'traditional' core Kaffe classes.

I've switched another two classes over in CVS to GNU Classpath since, 
and another one (java.lang.Math) is going in today. Feel free to join in 
the fun :)

cheers,
