Since most of the other programmers I work with use java, the JPL has been a lifesaver for me (I call java classes from perl). It has also given me a nice GUI to use. When we upgraded to java1.4 the JPL stopped working. Looking through the code, I noticed that the JNI module was still using JNI for java1.1. With java1.4, that interface has been depreciated. I’ve made the necessary changed to JNI.xs to work (at least on win32 with activestate). I was wondering how many other people use JPL, and if I should take the time to make the module ready for distribution (I have a couple of things hard coded for convenience), or if someone is already working on it?

If I do complete this module, how do I go about submitting it (since it is a core module)?

I’d appreciate any comments you have.
