The GNU Project has released version 0.95 of GNU Classpath, an incomplete free implementation of the core Java class libraries. "This release switches fully towards the 1.5 generics work that we previously released separately as classpath-generics. All this work is now fully integrated in the main release and various runtimes (gcj, cacao, jamvm, ikvm, etc) have been extended to take advantage of the new generics, annotations and enumeration support in the core library. From now on we intend to no longer release both a non-generics and a generics version. But if there is demand we might consider resurrecting the non-generics 1.4 branch with selected bug-fixes (depending on having a branch maintainer). Work is on the way to also add the new 1.6 additions, a start for selected packages has been made in this release." GNU Classpath is published under the GPL with library exception.

Kohsuke Kawaguchi has released Mock JavaMail. According to Kawaguchi, "Testing JavaMail applications is more difficult than necessary, because it involves in a lot of set up outside the test program. Doing this correctly in a portable way so that anyone in your team can run the test is almost impossible. Mock JavaMail comes to rescue. This project takes advantage of pluggability in JavaMail, so that you can send/receive e-mails against the temporary in-memory 'mailbox'."
