   Thanks for pointing out my simplifications.

  I will update the XWT blurb using a slightly edited
version:

  XWT is a self installing XUL runtime; written in
Java available - thanks to gcj - as a standalone
executable on Windows, Linux, Mac OS X, and Solaris
and as a plain old Java Archive for the rest.

XWT sports SVG, True Type fonts, OpenGL speed up and
more. The widget set is licensed under the GNU Library
GPL (LGPL); the core engine under the GNU GPL; headed
by Adam Megacz
