Re: JGNAT status??? (Volunteers?)

Hi


  Its a shame that jgnat is dying.

  Are there skilled (not pseudo skilled) voluntears in Java VM 
and/or Gnat/JGnat internals for a sourceforge project based in 
jgnat1.1p.


  This is just a question not a compromise.
  
  Without critical mass nothing can be done.
