The next pending release of the WCSDK will contain new language interfaces,
including:

    - Microsoft C# and .NET
    - Java

and for the examples in the JAVA, we are throwing in the entire JAVA source
code for the Wildcat! JAVA CHAT module.

The original plan with the Wildcat! JAVA SDK was to make it exactly as you
say, a JAVA version of wcNAV.  So 100% of the WCJAVA SDK source and
compiled classes is 100% around the virtual comm I/O that WcNavigator was
designed on.

Rick, we hear you!.

We just ask for your support and patience as we prepare this new and
exciting v6.1.451.9 release.

Thanks
