Java and JOGL, plus some other code development tools. We are not building GIS functionality in the core, all functionalities (when they come) will be extensions. And in fact, we are not presently building GIS functionalities at all. We are building an API-centric visualization core for others to leverage accordingly. When the time comes (very soon), it sounds like GeoTools and JTS are prime opportunities for collaboration/integration/extension/etc.
JavaOne should prove very interesting this year.
