   The next pending release of the WCSDK will contain new language interfaces,   
   including:   
      
    - Microsoft C# and .NET   
    - Java   
      
   and for the examples in the JAVA, we are throwing in the entire JAVA source   
   code for the Wildcat! JAVA CHAT module.   
      
   The original plan with the Wildcat! JAVA SDK was to make it exactly as you   
   say, a JAVA version of wcNAV. So 100% of the WCJAVA SDK source and   
   compiled classes is 100% around the virtual comm I/O that WcNavigator was   
   designed on.   
      
   Rick, we hear you!.   
      
   We just ask for your support and patience as we prepare this new and   
   exciting v6.1.451.9 release.   
      
   Thanks
