Re: *** ADMIN: Is this list needed anymore?

I meant: freely available.   In windows 10 I had to download java from

Having to install java will scare some people, and it later it may come
with a price tag...

available"?
What might happen to Java, and on which platform(s)?

I have used tn5250, at present I use tn5250j. Maybe this list can cover
both, since we do not know how long java will be available.
