Because it's possible that Sun finds this aspect of Harmony valuable
overall, and contributes information to help shape this.
I highly doubt that will happen (just my opinion though).

If that is a goal of Harmony then we've just made things a

Hi,
It seems like there is a little bit of heat being generated by this
topic due to confusion. While Geir has not actually stated this anywhere
I assume that the reason that he is advocating for a VM interface that
is independent of GNU Classpath is because he has plans to interoperate
with
One potential use is for companies (and individuals) to work around
particular performance limitations and bugs in the Sun VM while
keeping the libraries they know inside and out. I imagine that could
become common if Harmony ends up being as modular as we all hope.
I am curious as to how
