A list has been created for those interested in porting Java to
BSD platforms.  Because there has been interest from the other
platforms based on 4.4BSD-Lite, and the diffs as far as porting
this package are not major, it is not limited to any one BSD derivative,
although this may change in the future.

If you're on a FreeBSD, or NetBSD list, or frequent related newsgroups,
please forward this on to them.

The information for subscribing is as follows:

to subscribe send mail to java-port-bsd-request@portia.com with
'subscribe' in the body of the message.

All those that expressed interest in previous email to me have already
been subscribed.

Matt
