I also have my own hacked up version of jfli, if you want to have a look it is here:
Works fine, thanks!
So I think it would be great to include it into abcl-contrib to make it clear which version is maintained and working.
But I think it's better to rename it back to jfli-abcl to avoid confusion.
Also I've noticed that Ole removed new-class functionality, which is essentially a wrapper for java:jnew-runtime-class. I don't think we need new-class either, but included examples use it, so we need to add different examples. Or we can bring new-class back.
What is the status of this ticket: http://trac.common-lisp.net/armedbear/ticket/153 If it still requires external lib then I guess we can live without it.
