+Japhar is the Hungry Programmers' Java VM. It has been built from the
+ground up without consulting Sun's sources. It is currently at JDK
+1.1.5-level.
+
+Japhar is released under the LGPL, which should make it much more
+attractive for companies interested in embedding an open source JVM in
+their proprietary/commercial products. For example, the LGPL is
+compatible with Netscape's NPL license, and allows Japhar to be
+included into Mozilla.
