Greg et al -

Out of curiosity, what's the roadmap for the 1.4.x ports?  I'm truly 
appreciative of all the work that you and Alexey and others have done 
getting Java working on FreeBSD, but status reports have been few and 
far between, and significant patches appear to be languishing in mailing 
list archives rather than getting folded into the patch set.

In particular:

. the last 'official' patchset is from March 7th, 7 months ago.
. the experimental patchset doesn't have any listed changes since June 
2nd, 4 months ago
. there are at least two important patches for -CURRENT that appear to 
only exist in the mailing list archives

I'm not whining -- from posts in the past few months, it seems like 
significant work is still occurring. It would just be nice to have that 
process be a little more transparent.

- a.
