Actually, check out Robert's recent posting (which I will quote for you in case you hadn't joined the list at that point): "There are two versions of the ASDK in CVS -- aglets1_1 and aglets1_2. This code has spawned three "releases". What's referred to as 1.1B3 is the aglets1_1 codebase which was the last official release from IBM before opening the source. This code runs on JDK 1.1.8 and is probably the most stable version (relatively speaking). There is another "release" of the 1.1 codebase with modifications to compile under Java 2. Note, that this is /not/ what is in the aglets1_2 codebase. This version is maintained by Kovalan Muniandy at http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/~muniandy/agletsd-j2/. Finally, there is the aglets1_2 codebase which I believe was IBM's next version of aglets. It compiles under Java 2 (I use 1.3), and the biggest change is that it uses the security features of Java 2 (the keystore for example). This version has some rough edges but it does run. :)" Daryl. -----Original Message----- From: Ferrari, Gregory D [mailto:gre...@lm...] Sent: Wednesday, February 14, 2001 12:47 PM To: Aglets-Developer (E-mail) Subject: RE: [Aglets-developer] The Project I have an immediate need for Aglets to run under the latest Java technology.
