Kevin,

It is Apple's responsibility to completes the implementation of JDK 1.1
for the Mac OS (they call it MRJ 2.0). I do not know what Apple's
current schedule is, so you'll need to check with them on availability
(http://applejava.apple.com).

P.S. You are less likely to get a response by sending it to every alias
you can find! Especially to specialized ones that really aren't
appropriate for such a general purpose questions (i.e., jmapi, jndi,
java-io, etc.)
