Because most java developers don't want native dependencies, as they are 
annoying when your application is deployed on systems with different 
architectures, it has a performance overhead, bugs in native dependencies can 
crash the jvm.
I really want a overview of the messages exchanged and the possible state 
transitions as part of the authentication handshake for Srp and Legacy_Auth. I 
probably made a mistake somewhere, but I can't see the forest for the trees.

Why to bother implementing network protocol if Java can use native libraries, 
including 
fbclient.dll?..
