Hi,

I'm interested in cooperative programming in network.
Until java comes out, I have managed C++ (and was confused^_^;;).
I'm happy to use java because I don't need to concern
any more heterogeneousness.

To make links to documents about a class, I made a class-path management 
daemon(cmpd) which maps a class name to WWW location(URL).
#To be exact, because of version control the cmpd asks a class name to 
#another peer cmpd which knows where the class exists and gets the class
#path from the peer cmpd.

Recently I made java version cmpd from C++ version cmpd.
#Unfortunatly it was written by C++ ;-)
I will extend java and javac to use the daemon as soon as possible.

My daemon is not for distributed computing, so there is no need to
deal with instances. I'm afraid this follow is no use.
I am not good at English, sorry.
