May be - some day - we can write a patch, to make GL4Java be avaiable in Kaffe (heavy/light component awt problems). We will just write some java classes with native code being usable with Kaffe - thats all. No GPL virus effects will exists ! GL4Java must stay as LGPL forever ! Because we do use LGPL code written by others (not myself, e.g. the glut-fonts, etc.) allready ! So - whats about the name contest ? I have found some italian names :) FYI & Fun ========= Espresso - The classic one :) black and strong (of course) Doppio - double espresso Ristretto - A short espresso (smaller and stronger) Lungo - With water stretched espresso ... So how about: GL/Doppio GLDoppio DoppioGL (Because it is the double of espresso :) .. RistrettoGL (because its small and strong binding ?) EspressoGL (because its fast ? :) LungoGL, GLLungo (because it is not 100% espresso) .. and ya allready know it - java is the name for espresso, or just say coffe.
