I heard a while back that Blackdown would be contributing enhancements
to the Sun JVM.  Specifically I'm looking for Blackdown's WebStart
enhancements to become standard on the JRE's shipped by Sun.

Anyone know if/when this will happen?  I love the Blackdown JVMs, but
the releases have been very sporadic.  There was no Blackdown 1.4.1
release (only a beta), and this 1.4.2 rc is coming pretty close to
1.4.2's end of life.

Once Tiger ships it would be nice not to have to wait a year before
seeing a Blackdown implementation.  Or should I say, see Blackdown
features available.  If Blackdown features were merged quicker into the
Sun version I'd be cool with that.  I heard that some Blackdown folks
were on the Tiger working group.  Does that mean more involvement,
quicker adoption of Blackdown Linux features in the Sun Linux JVMs?
