BrandWeg
========

The BrandWeg project is a fusion point for two Free Software projects:
GNU Classpath (http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath) and OpenJDK
(http://openjdk.java.net).  It mirrors the existing IcedTea
project (http://icedtea.classpath.org) in providing a hybrid of the
two.  However, whereas IcedTea approaches this from the perspective
of building and patching OpenJDK, we instead take GNU Classpath as the
baseline and bring in elements of the OpenJDK to fill the remaining
holes.

This project is still very experimental, and is being conducted outside
the repositories of either GNU Classpath or OpenJDK to retain the
stability of these code bases and also avoid any unnecessary legal
issues at this point.  The BrandWeg project does not host source
code from either project.  It consists simply of build scripts and
patches which allow a hybrid of the two to be built.

See INSTALL for build instructions.  Comments and criticisms welcome.
