Well, I got the Kaffe sources. This was easy.

Now I'm trying to get the Blackdown Sources, since
I'd like to read the green threads implementation.
These should be sitting in some patches, I think.
Whether I'll work on either of them is still open,
but I want to read them.

Searching since hours, I cannot find their
patches, just all the mirrors with binaries.
Does anybody have an idea where to get them?

ciao - chris
