Re: A suggestion to list core classes

["Ean R . Schuessler" <ean@brainfood.com>]

Yeah, this is kind of good. I was thinking about a system where each Java
aware package puts a file in an /etc dir, with init.d looking priorities.

So you might have:

/etc/java/classpaths/
    00_Kaffe.txt
    10_JServ.txt
    .
    .
    .

All of these would get sourced to form a composite CLASSPATH. I hadn't really
considered the base class problem. Maybe a combination of the two systems.
