Jini(TM) Technology Lookup, Discovery, and Join Compatibility Kit v1.0 now available

Compatibility is important.  Period.

So, to better support your efforts to create compatible
implementations of some core Jini technology specifications, the Jini
technology team at Sun is pleased to announce general availability of
the Jini Technology Lookup, Discovery, and Join Compatibility Kit
v1.0 (LDJ Kit). This release is licensed under the Apache License
Version 2.0, and is available for download here:

     http://starterkit.jini.org/

In fact, compatibility is so important to us that we make it part of
our nightly automated testing. Using automation hooks in the LDJ Kit,
we ensure that each of the Jini Technology Starter Kit (starter kit)
contributed service implementations pass all LDJ Kit tests under a
number of different persistence and transport configurations.

More about the LDJ Kit:
The LDJ Kit is a freely available code and documentation bundle that
can be used to qualify certain characteristics of hardware or
software based on Jini technology. The purpose of compatibility
testing is to ensure that programs are good citizens in the
environment of Jini technology-enabled services and/or devices. The
rules of good citizenship are detailed in the Jini technology
specifications and are, to a lesser extent, codified in the LDJ Kit.
The LDJ Kit is a modified version of the Jini Technology Core
Platform Compatibility Kit (TCK), but in keeping with the starter
kit's open source licensing model, there is no legal requirement to
execute the tests in the LDJ Kit.

Cheers,
Nigel
