Kaffe essentially provides the 1.1 version of the Java "platform". It does,
for instance, provide the reflection facilities but does not provide weak
references (i think). It still does not provide RMI so you could even argue
that it isn't 1.1. I think its mostly usable as a replacement for 1.1,
depends on what you are doing.
