<p>GNU Classpath, Essential Libraries for Java, is a GNU project to
create free core class libraries for use with virtual machines and compilers
for the java programming language.
</P>
<P>Classpath is still a work in progress. The first public release
will be version 1.0. There have been no public releases; however, pre-release
source code is available via GNU's anonymous <A href="https://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group=classpath">
CVS server</A> , and snapshots of the Classpath tree have been released and
are available from <A href="ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/classpath/">ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/classpath/</A>
</P>

GNU Classpath 1.0 will be fully compatible with the 1.1 and largely
compliant with the 1.2 API specification and will have a stable API
for interacting with virtual machines.
</p>
<p>
Current snapshot releases have implementations for the following
packages (and some subpackages) <code>java.applet, java.awt,
java.beans, java.io, java.lang, java.math, java.net, java.rmi,
java.security, java.sql, java.text, java.util, java.util.jar,
java.util.zip, org.omg</code>. Not all classes and methods are implemented yet,
but most are. many of the implemented classes are already up to the
1.2 API spec. Some are already compliant with the 1.3 and 1.4 API
specification (there are preliminary implementations of
<code>java.nio</code> and <code>javax.swing</code>).
