Dear FreeBSD users,

The following ports are scheduled for removal on November 7 if they
are still broken at that time and no PRs have been submitted to fix
them.  If you are interested in saving these ports, please send your
patches to the maintainer.  If the maintainer is unresponsive or the

FreeBSD Foundation Announces Native Support for Java JDK 1.3.1 on FreeBSD

Boulder, CO - August 25, 2003 - The FreeBSD Foundation today announced the
availability of a binary distribution of the Java JDK version 1.3.1 for
the widely used FreeBSD operating system.

Wes Peters of the FreeBSD Core Team commented "This announcement hallmarks
a new era of Java support for FreeBSD.  Having easy to install binary
Java packages will ensure that all users can enjoy the benefits of Java
technology on the FreeBSD platform."

Java users can download, without charge, the FreeBSD Foundation's Java
distribution from <http://www.FreeBSDFoundation.org/downloads/java.shtml>.
The FreeBSD Foundation is also providing OEM licenses to FreeBSD
distributors, permitting them to ship out-of-the-box Java support with
FreeBSD. 

Foundation Secretary and Treasurer, Justin T. Gibbs, pledged continued
support for Java technology on the FreeBSD platform.  "The FreeBSD Foundation
is committed to keeping FreeBSD a Java enabled platform.  With the 1.3.1 JDK
release behind us, the Foundation has turned its attention toward the 1.4.X
JDK.  The volunteers working on FreeBSD Java support already have us most of
the way there.  The Foundation is now financing efforts to accelerate the
completion of this work."

Noting the importance of Java support to the FreeBSD user base was FreeBSD
Foundation president Robert Watson.  "Java support is critical to the
success of FreeBSD in the enterprise-- this release will open many doors
for the FreeBSD platform."
