I think it would suck for everyone involved if Java was segregated in
its own Fedora sandbox just before FLOSS java stacks reach API parity
with closed ones. Really in a few years users should be able to install
cool apps without having to care whether they're written in C, C++,
python, Java, C# of whatever.

You can't talk about perl without taking CPAN into account, you can't
talk about Java without taking JPP into account, that's not reason
enough to move perl or java to separate repositories.
