This is exactly why I was asking about kaffe.. kaffe has AWT code.
But if kaffe and Cygnus aren't communicating such that the class files
and libraries are not compatible somehow, then everyone has to choose
between speed and graphics.. now that doesn't make much sense, does it?
It seems like there's going to be an awful lot of duplication of
effort between kaffe and Cygnus.. both writing JVM's, both rewriting
classes.zip from scratch, etc. Seems like a shame.
