Shaun,

Thanks for replying. I hope you had a nice holiday.

I think I updated classpath from experimental, since I was having
problems with an eclipse project of mine.

I'm experiencing neither of the problems mentioned above. Transfers are
just fine, browse works perfectly. I've not encountered any unusual
error, but I'm not a power-user of azureus though, I just use it to
download some torrents, and It does that just fine for me now.

I don't think the GIJ jvm can run with the classpath package, I think
we'll have to wait for GCC 4.2 for a more recent classpath.  If you're
worried about performance, I remember Azureus on windows (Sun 1.5 JDK)
to be absolutely terrible for system performance, but it runs really
smooth with cacao for me on the same system.

Thanks for your effort in packaging this!
Robin
