Ok, as soon as I have done some more testing I will send you the source 
code for the sdljavaguichan port.  I am building this on Windows and the 
GLU extensions are currently giving me a headache since some methods are 
not defined in the MS Platform SDK:

Stop.

I believe this is due to the fact that those are GLU 1.3 and MS is at 
1.2 or even lower (didn't check).

I also ported the guichan demo applications:

- ffdemo (Final Fantasy Style Menu)
- fpsdemo (First Person Shooter Style Menu, code complete but currently 
not working since I cannot build the glew wrapper on Windows and the 
code uses GLU)
- openglwidgets (standard widgets demo using OpenGL graphics implementation)
- sdlwidgets (standard widgets demo using SDL graphics implementation)

The API--as is--is 99.9% compatible to the C++ version with a few minor 
modifications.  Since the GUIChan developers are working on a manual it 
should be quite useful ;)
