From: "Mr. Burns"
Hello all,
>> Two points from the Readme are very important to mention
One more point at the very end of the file that looks important:
------------------------------------------------------------
* Java
Java versions earlier than 1.5 are *not* supported. Neither the IBM
nor Innotek versions of Java will work with this release.
------------------------------------------------------------
I heard the a newer version of Java is being developed, alongside with
recent "Odin" updates for that purpose.
How is that coming along?
Will that (newer Java) be made available to ALL OS/2 users (not just ECS
users), and will it work with those newer FF/Seamonkey releases?
And what about newer flash plugin that I heard of?
Will that work with these newer Firefox/Seamonkey releases, and be made
available to all O/2 users (for a "reasonable fee" I would think...)?
Thanks!
