Hello World!

There's still quite a lot to do, including finishing off support for reflection and sun.misc.Unsafe but threading, exception handling, library handling, class-loading and the VM bootstrap sequence should be done.

Cool progress!
Do JamVM still produce those quick and fast startup times when using the OpenJDK class librarys compared to the fast startuptimes obtainable when using GNU Classpath classes?
Im delighted to finally see a truly low overhead JVM to be used with the OpenJDK classes, and I think JamVM will give a cutting edge in realtime embedded java applications where quick response times and low memory overhead are more cruicial than top message processing throughput, a metric that totally dominate how we currently measure JVM preformance in most server benchmarks.
Finally :-)
Cool, congrats :)
I always wished I could run something lightweight like jamvm with openjdk classes for my nokia-770.
Great news and nice job, congrats! This really widens the range of use-cases (aka. test-cases) for JamVM.
Congratulations! All these sun.misc.* bits are an annoyingly large body of code...
Will JamVM still support GNU Classpath, as CACAO does?
