What I will do is to follow free specifications of Java language and, if necessary, totally free libraries. What I can not ensure is that there is a free JVM and compiler able to run the project. I can not ensure it because of two main reasons:- I don't know how complete are free JVMs like Japhar or Sable.- I don't know how complete is classpath project (or any other free implementation of j2sdk 1.4 classes).So, in case that I follow a free specification but not implemented by a free project, is it considered a project that cannot be run under a free java suite?.Sadly, yes...
No problem. I will begin the project as usual to me with the tools I know better. I won't be in my city for one month so I will not be able of connecting to Internet anyway, so at this stage of the project I don't need the project to be hosted anywhere. During this month I'll work in a local computer and when I come back I will check if what I have is posiible to be run under free java tools. Then, we can decide to host it in savannah and look for people to collaborate in the project. If I see free java projects are not enough to run my project then I will see the way to implement those things I need in a free way.
I hope everything goes well beetwen us. Best regards...P.S.: Any reply to this message I will readit on begining September. Thanks a lot for everything.
