Hi,

I have thought about it, but haven't looked into it deeply. This is
partly because I don't program in java, partly because I have always
had to install non-free software to run java programs. The only
free versions of java that I know about is kaffe and gcj. Do either
of these have what it takes to make the javahl bindings usefule?
