 350 implementation of SUN's Java. It currently runs on Linux, FreeBSD,

 357 <p>I'm one of two designers and maintainers of a Internet games metaserver
 358 project. We want to ease the task of discovering available game servers
 359 for any game on the Internet, and have designed a distributed network of
 360 gigs-servers where game servers can report their presence, and game clients
 361 can query the closest gigs-server to get a list of running game servers.</p>

 367 software more available for the primary schools in Norway, and are
 368 making a turn-key installation for the school networks, with all the
 369 services and desktop applications needed in schools, with the user
 370 programs available in Norwegian Bokmål, Nynorsk and Nothern Saami.</p>
