Question of the status of GCJ

[Mike Purdy]

I would like to ask an admittedly embarrassing question regarding the
status of GCJ development and its use to natively compile SWT
applications for Linux, OSX, and perhaps Windows (though this is not an
immediate need).

The embarrassing part is that I've lost track for a while now of where
GCJ development is at, what version of java it supports, how it relates
to Sun's open sourcing of java, and what the future development plans
are for GCJ.  I would like to pick back up soon with the possibility of
natively compiling a couple projects, but I need to get back up to speed
with GCJ as a whole first.

I appreciate any insight anyone can provide.  Is natively compiling SWT
applications still supported or feasible?
