The first phase of the JVM port to the RCX is complete (translating the
existing 68HC11 code into C++). We are now testing that to make sure the
port did not introduce bugs. The next steps (in parallel) are to finalize
the RCX-specific classes and to design the OS abstraction layer for thread
support and synchronization primitives.
The current code, which includes no H8 assembly code, totals 19k including
floating-point routines. OS thread support is not included, and I estimate
that will take approximately 1k. I am confident the final product, after
optimization and rewriting appropriate parts in H8 assembly, will total
around 16k. If space is still an issue, we may make the floating point
routines a module that can be loaded separately.

| (...) Wow, looks like this is really off to a strong start! When/if you're ready for a dedicated mailing list/group, let me know if there's any way I can help out. The .robotics.rcx group is perfectly fine too, if you'd like to use that, although it (...) (25 years ago, 7-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
