Yes.  I tried that.

If you're using it within netscape, it is using netscape's JVM,
not the one from JDK.  Actually, what I'm mainly interested in
is the javac compiler.    Anyway, this is not that big a problem
for me as I intend to install the newer JDK under Red Hat 5.0
when I get a chance.  I'll hack away at hamm until it is working
again.  I was a little disappointed when I moved my data from
a disk using 
  find . -depth -print |cpio -admv /var
but carelessly mounted it as /tmp and it got wiped out.  :-(
Anyway, my debian distribution is now a little sick until
I sort things out. 

I think that it really needs to move to 2.0.  I noticed that
Bruce Perens has stepped down as Debian project leader and has
been replaced by Ian (Jackson?).  Anyway, maybe the Debian project
will start to take off.  I do like their new penguin logo.

Regards,
Craig
