As you may have gathered from the JSR-121 expert group meeting notes
of October 27, the next expected milestone for this JSR was commitment by
Sun of resources for delivery of JSR-121 as part of J2SE 6. ("Mustang"). Sun
has elected not to make this commitment. So the "1:1" style implementation
of JSR-121 that would have hosted one isolate in one JVM instance in Mustang
is not going to happen.
The remaining means of completing JSR-121 is as a standard extension
decoupled from, but at a faster pace than, Sun's J2SE product cycle and I'm
pursuing this avenue.
I'll keep this list posted but I'll be on vacation until the 29th
and I don't expect to have anything more to report until I get back.
