<header "GNU Classpath">
<plain-text>
GNU Classpath is a set of essential libraries for supporting the Java
language. Our goal is to provide a free replacement for Sun's
proprietary class libraries so that the GNU system can run programs
written in the Java language.
Classpath is licensed under the terms of the <link /copyleft/gpl.html
"GNU General Public License"> with the following special exception.
As a special exception, if you link this library with other files to
produce an executable, this library does not by itself cause the
resulting executable to be covered by the GNU General Public License.
This exception does not however invalidate any other reasons why the
executable file might be covered by the GNU General Public License.
As such, it can be used to run free as well as proprietary
applications and applets.
Classpath is a work in progress. There have been no public releases;
however, pre-release source code is available via GNU's anonymous CVS
server, and snapshots of the Classpath tree have been released and are
available from <link ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/classpath/
ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/classpath/>. CVSROOT is
<tt>:pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvs</tt>; Module is
<tt>classpath</tt>. There is no password.

<H4>Mailing List</H4>
<plain-text>
There is one general discussion list for Classpath. You may
<link http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath/ subscribe> to
the mailing list via the web. However, you may also
just send an email message with a subject of "subscribe"
to <link mailto:classpath-request@gnu.org?subject=subscribe
<classpath-request@gnu.org>>. You may
<link http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath/ unsubscribe>
from the mailing list via the web as well. To send a message to the list,
mail it to <link mailto:classpath@gnu.org <classpath@gnu.org>>.
An <link http://www.mail-archive.com/classpath%40gnu.org/ archive> of
the list is available which dates back to the beginning of the project.
A new, but less comprehensive, archive of the mailing list is now located
on <link http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/classpath/ mail.gnu.org>.

<H4>Status</H4>
<plain-text>
We're aiming for GNU Classpath 1.0 to be fully compatible with Java
1.1 and largely compatible with Java 1.2. Detailed information on the
current state of a package can be obtained by clicking on the
appropriate link below.

<plain-text>
The primary target for GNU Classpath was originally <link
http://www.japhar.org Japhar>. Japhar-0.07 works out-of-the-box with
GNU Classpath-0.00. Japhar-0.09 is required for newer releases of GNU
Classpath. There are however four other target VMs we'd like to work
with out-of-the-box. Those are <link http://sources.redhat.com/java/
GCJ>, <link http://www.sablevm.org/ SableVM>, <link
http://www.kaffe.org Kaffe>, <link http://kissme.sourceforge.net/ Kissme>,
and <link http://www.intel.com/research/mrl/orp/ Intel's ORP>.
Porting Classpath to <link http://www.transvirtual.com/kaffe.html
Kaffe> should be rather trivial, but no one has started work on it.
If you're interested in doing this work, please send us an email to
<link mailto:classpath@gnu.org <classpath@gnu.org>>. SableVM,
Kissme, and ORP both already use some form of GNU Classpath for their class
libraries.
