Before fedora-devel-java-list was set up we had precisely this
discussion internally, several times as it happens ;)  If I answer
you quickly it's not because I'm dismissing it but rather that I've
already thought long and hard about it beforehand.

I've been trying to dig out the discussion all morning, but I keep
getting sidetracked with email.  So, if you'll bear with me a few
moments longer...

Cheers,
