Monotone

saugart
mentions monotone in his Planet Classpath
entry. One thing we’ve been wanting to do here is use monotone to
help with libgcj/classpath merges. The idea is to reduce the cost of
these merges and make it much easier for us to share work across the
different projects and branches. Monotone isn’t quite there yet, but
it will be.

gcjx

I added a new warning that detects when you write extends
Object, which is simply redundant. It turns out this happens
in a couple of places in Classpath. I really have to send in my
warning removal patch…

I’ve also been looking at really starting work on generics. I
think that’s what I want to hack on next.

libffi

I posted a note to libffi-discuss (see the libffi page for a
pointer to the list) about the possibility of putting it on its own
release schedule. Please join the discussion if you have an interest
in libffi.
