I already posted a patch to make the "official" (BISS) BISS-AWT-0.94 run with
the kaffe AWT (about two weeks ago). Something about a biss.awt.List bug, I
recall (if you don't have it, I can dig it out once more).

So far, we have done work to enhance the biss-jde for our own purposes (as you
can see from the screenshot gallery), but we haven't yet decided how to
distribute this. Eventually, we will end up with a Kaffe-specific development
system (capable of telling/asking the VM about classes to reload, breakpoints,
heap contents and all that stuff), but there is no schedule for this yet.
Depends on feedback and demand.
