In each case below, I checked out CVS, removed the /usr/local/kaffe
symlink, did a "./configure --enable-debug --with-includes=3D/usr/local/inc=
lude
--with-libraries=3D/usr/local/lib", then "vi libtool", "gmake", "gmake inst=
all",
then renamed /usr/local/kaffe to /usr/local/kaffe-May-NN and made
/usr/local/kaffe a symlink to kaffe-May-NN.  Then I renamed "servlet.jar"
within /usr/local/kaffe-May-NN/jre/lib to "disabled.servlet.jar"
and did my testing.  After testing, I did a "gmake distclean" before
the next checkout.

=46rom the freenet point of view, what I did was create a new user
account, drop "freenet.jar" and "freenet-ext.jar" and "seednodes.ref"
into its home dir, ran "java freenet.node.Main --config" and set it
up as a transient on a randomly chosen port with defaults for
everything else.  I inserted a 2.3 MB file using
"java freenet.client.cli.Main --htl 0 put CHK@ filename", and then
with each version of Kaffe I attempted to retrieve it with
"java freenet.client.cli.Main --htl 0 --healPercentage 0 get CHK@blah
newfilename".

CVS/Tag for the May 16th checkout which is the same as May 17th:
D2003.05.16.04.00.00

(I'm in US/Eastern a.k.a. EST5EDT.  I don't know what timezone
definition cvs is using when I say "May 16".)

After that, I ran cvs2cl.pl in the Kaffe source dir, which took an
*extremely* long time (easily longer than the entire testing process).
In fact, it's still not done yet, and it's been running for over
70 minutes.  So rather than wait for it, and attempt to get timestamps
on the individual check-ins from it, I'm just going to send this
message "as is".
