I'd be interested to know what's the relationship between Blackdown Java and Sun's own Java, how the Blackdown project is run (maybe a team of volunteers?, their possible sponsors?). There's a lot not said here and in the blackdown.org site. [[User:Etz Haim|Etz Haim]] 14:15, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
* From memory, Blackdown is a port of Sun's Java to Linux. It's not open source. It's run by a bunch of volunteers who signed a scary NDA so that they could see Sun's code. It was much more important before Sun had an official Linux port. I'm unclear on how it differs from the official one now. I'm also not sure why none of this is on the blackdown.org site. --[[User:Slamb|Slamb]] 19:10, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
