Release policy: The product receives ongoing support, feature enhancements and bugfixes are included from time to time. Every 3-6 months I produce a minor release though I will most probably never do a 1.0 release. I will support new JDKs and platforms (server operating systems only, no XP, no Win98 ). If you report bugs or show stoppers for your project I will generally try to fix them as soon as possible (usually on the next weekend).

Platforms: NT 4.0, Win2000, Windows 2003 and XP are supported. 64bit versions of the JVM are not supported yet. Not tested under Vista yet but I suppose it works. I have not intentions to support Vista but it will probably work. The special parameters (-classic -hotspot -client -server ) which allow for a VM selection on command line are supported.

JVM: Supported JAVA versions are Sun JDK 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6 and compatible JDKs (32bit only) Is has been previously tested with IBM JDK 1.3 and JRockit 1.4 (see FAQ section on JRockit). Supported means, me or other people have seen it work (and told me). Works around LOGOFF shutdown bug in all JDKs pre 1.3.1.
All varieties of the virtual maschine should work (classic, JIT, hotspot, server). I will support future versions of the JDK as soon as they are released. If you would like other JVMs supported please send me a note with a link where I can get the JDK.
