Jim Pick is working on a 'release framework' so it'll be posible to run
a lot of tests to be sure kaffe is ready for releases. if you want a
snapshot, you can get the one from Debian:

# apt-get install kaffe

or if you don't have a Debian box, you can download the source here:
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/k/kaffe/kaffe_1.1.4.PRECVS4.orig.tar.gz

Note that a new release should be uploaded in a few days
