I've read about "Orto", a Java virtual machine that runs on Javascript, but I can't find the actual code, only a few articles about it - like this one: http://ejohn.org/blog/running-java-in-javascript/

Does anyone know where I can find Orto itself, or something else that can run Java bytecode on Javascript?

Note that the GWT doesn't meet my needs since it is a Java source code to Javascript compiler, not a Java bytecode to Javascript compiler. My source language is Scala, so GWT won't work.

This might be the homepage. But it's all Japanese to me. I clicked a few random links and tried to use Google to translate it, but it didn't work for me.

Hope this helps.

@VonC, yes that was not the link I meant to post. I've updated it, but it seems to be down

I know: I was checking both orto.accelart.jp and orto.jp, but both went down in 2008. Are you thinking what I am thinking? Internet ARCHIVE! Go...

+1  A: 

Downloads are under "Orto SDK" in the left-hand menu:

However, considering that the Orto project seems to have quietly died, you may be better off looking elsewhere.

The homepage of the project Orto was located at http://orto-lang.com and http://orto.accelart.jp/ but seems that are not longer available.

I was able to download Orto SDK using the web archive. Check this:
