Wonka (not to be confused with wonko) is a clean-room implemenation of
Java, under a BSD licence, which currently runs on X86 and ARM processors
under GNU/Linux or eCos. How do I know that? Because I run the project,
that's how. ;>
I'm one of those people who use Linux at work because that's what the
company IP dept supports, and BSD (Net & Free) at home. I'd really like
to see Wonka in the NetBSD ports collection, but I'd appreciate a bit of
assistance both with de-linuxifying Wonka and with making the package
itself. Any volunteers?
BTW I'm sending this from an Atari TT030 with the 1280x960 B&W monitor.
I only see the NetBSD "logo" as a backdrop for xlogin, but I have to say -
looks pretty good in B&W. ;->
