More or less. Actually in order to get full results for Sun's JDK as
of 1.4 I found I needed jce.jar and jsse.jar as well as rt.jar; with
later JDK versions I decided it was easier to not even bother to
figure out exactly which jars I needed, but just use jre/lib/*.jar.
Essentially I need any/all jars or zips that contain any classes that
form any part of the packages in the public API.
If it'd be easier to just provide a download of an automatically-built
up-to-date version of your entire JDK equivalent, I'm quite happy to
have my scripts extract the relevant parts on my end. But either way
works.
Thanks!
Stuart.

Agreed. I feel that we all muddled through creating the last snapshot.
It would be good to have a few developer builds under our belt before we
get to a real release, in order to iron out the procedure. It should
include a stability period to test the heck out of it and triage
failures, get the doc up to date, vote, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if it took us about three developer build cycles
to get it all just right.

Tim

Yep - what we have now are still snapshots, in reality.
We should probably start formally doing the "developer build" - the
one that is voted and tested. Good step forward for us.

Then we should start to distinguish between nightly development builds
and snapshot 'milestone' builds that have undergone some additional
manual testing.

Yes, we will do that eventually, and put it there under that link.
so if you start w/ that link, you'll always get the latest.. this
will motivate us to get our side done :)

I can do that, but that file currently has a datestamp of December
27th. I was kind of hoping for something that would be built
continuously at all times, or at least nightly, so that I'll pick up
changes the same day they get checked in...

Well... how about then just always going for :
http://people.apache.org/builds/harmony/snapshots/latest-harmony-
jdk-linux-x86.tar.gz
which will point to our latest/greatest and then just find the data
you need in
jdk/jre/lib/
That should include everything we have.
