Re: [cobalt-developers] JServ on the Cube 2

[Gordon Garb <gordon@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The Kaffe open source JVM for the Qube 2700, Qube 2, RaQ, and RaQ 2 server appliances is available from Transvirtual at
ftp://ftp.kaffe.org/pub/kaffe/binaries/linux/kaffe-1.0.5-6.mips.rpm .
it includes Servlet API support via Apache JServ, RMI API support, and a Mips JIT.

Best of all, it is open source, and it is free.

Best Regards,
