Congrats...

I've been using 2008r4 since originally available, and thought I was 
stuck there, due to OS/2's lack of a current JVM. Thanks to the open 
sourcing of Java, we now have an almost-current build available (see 
http://trac.netlabs.org/java ), and I've been waiting to get the time to 
really test it out with MD (pre-GA builds of the JVM seemed to display 
printing issues for me).

Startup script to run 2011r2 (based on earlier .cmd files):

/* Simple jre application launcher */
parse source . . thiscmd

/* If running this moneydance.cmd file "as is" doesn't work, edit
    the following line to include the full path to the java executable. */
jbin = 'c:\Java160_b22\bin\java.exe'
classpath = ''

/* find out the directory of this command file */
mdbin = filespec('drive', thiscmd)||filespec('path', thiscmd)

/* run the application */
'@' || jbin' -mx512m -cp' 
mdbin'moneydance.jar;'mdbin'appsrc.jar;'mdbin'jcommon-1.0.16.jar;'mdbin'jfreechart-1.0.13.jar;'mdbin'tablelayout.jar 
Moneydance'
/* return any result to the caller */
return rc

A note to upgraders: It is imperative to edit the actual run line to 
adjust the included jars and also to increase the garbage collection 
heap (-mx) from the default in order to get the app to run.

Cheers, all!
