the templates that ships with it have the wrong color scheme and some 
details. I have a fixed version to probably check under Tools but I should 
change also the the build.xml to use them.

general note: for a definitive release also an appropriate subset of 
CPython test suite should be considered.

if it is the sun one maybe not (up to 1.3.x -target 1.1 does the trick but 
when I tried javac 1.4.0 even with -target 1.1,it  produced classes 
rejected by JDK 1.1.7/8, that's a bug on javac part, don't know if it is 
solved with later releases)

general note not especially for 2.2a0: can we run their tests and be more 
picky?

in some sense that will be spurious bugs/reports.

general note: the test suite should also tell that :)

at worst given the nature of 2.2a0 you can simply zip the distribution.
