Recently, within IBM, we have been defining the interface

A few of us at Intel have also done something similar. That is, we
created a simple, easy to understand Classpath/VM interface. We also
did not look at GNU Classpath because of its license. Hopefully
Harmony licensing issues will get resolved soon so that actual code
containing interfaces can be donated to Apache. This will make
pulling the best ideas from each version of VM/Classlib interface
into Apache Harmony much easier
Indeed. I have another rev to propose - it will invert the
questionnaire to
a) make it clear that people will be able to work on *anything* for
which there isn't a problem due to previous exposure, rather than
only be able to work on things they initially declared
b) ensure there's an included "resolution procedure" for cases where
previous exposure is resolvable
c) Make the compontent list a bit finer grained so previous exposure
to X doesn't keep you from working on things unrelated solely because
of our bucketing.
