You're making a logic insinuation here that anything C# does is good
enough for Java.
Well I could've picked from several other languages, i.e. Ruby [http://
ruby-doc.org/core/classes/Float.html] but it just so happens that C#
is the closest younger sibling to Java.
Is it a good name? Not

For sure one has to love the 2MB size of mscorlib.dll, compared to

I've done some more checking and there IS a fatal flaw in my scheme:
Even a .getMethod() lookup on a public method runs a security check
and can thus result in a SecurityException. No clue why. I guess one

My main point was Microsoft says that they say c# and the clr are a
standard, so they dont include microsoft in their packages(namesspaces)
naming and yet we have mscorlib.dll.

I don't ðink ðat it is a fair like for like comparison. Given ðat .Net

But why call it mscorlib why not keep nice vendor names out and name it

You are whining over the fact that the name of a binary assembly
possibly hints at an implementation provider? I don't actually think
your comparison makes sense, as Java completely lacks the concept of
versioned assemblies (hopefully Jigsaw will change that) - you either
have JSE, or not.
When
Surely you mean:
