Easy to say.   There are a lot of problems right now with SUN's java -- in
particular, bugs that have been known for a long time, are not "advertised"
and haven't been addressed for a long time.   They seem to be spreading
themselves too thin.

I'm not being critical but rather cautioning: My point is that we must be
careful with discussions that wax philosophic and talk grandly about
whatever is "therein implied".    We should not "imply" but rather "state
explicitly".  In this way we'll not have misunderstandings.   Additionally,
if we "state explicitly" we are less likely to be tempted to imply that our
knowledge is more than it is.  There is a tendency to want to do this, but
it isn't a good thing...

Cheers!
