I have a BETA pre-compiled JACL binary available from 
http://www.patrickfinnegan.com/JACL/JACL.zip.  Comes packaged with 
jdk1.3.1_01 JDK.  Any volunteers to download and test?   Does anyone 
have JACL  programs I can use to test the distro?

Patrick, what is the point of putting up this 23 meg download? First off,
I don't think you are legally allowed to redistribute the JDK binaries. Also, I
don't see why people would want to download both a JDK and Jacl
that happen to be put into the same directory. Second, giving people .exe
files is not typically a good idea because of virus issues under Windows.

What exactly are you wanting to accomplish?

thanks
