The Java Update prompted discussion about Apple's upcoming implementation on Java 1.4...
This mailing list email from Apple's Java Product Manager, Allen Denison on Jan 30, 2002 reveals a WWDC early release for Java 1.4:
We understand that not having the latest version of Java
(beta or otherwise) at the time it's available for other platforms is a
shortcoming. But let me assure you that it's our intention to make that
a temporary shortcoming, rather than an ongoing one. Our commitment is very strong, and hopefully that will be demonstrated in our actions over
the next year.
.......
PS: It's my personal hope/goal that Apple and Sun will be able to align
our 1.5 releases, but don't take that as a promise.
