Hi all,
I want to announce that the Java processor JOP is now open-source
under GPL v3. With JOP it is now possible to extend the open-source
stack down to the CPU.
JOP is an implementation of the Java virtual machine in hardware -
that means a Java processor. It's not the only Java processor in the
world, but now the first one under GPL ;-)
If you want to browse the project: the sources are at opencores [1],
there are two web sites [2, 3], and a handbook [4] available.
Cheers, Martin
