i'd rather have a sharp stick in my eye than deal w/a lot fo java in 
cf5. porting geoLocator from mx to cf5 took 3 times as long as it did to 
write the thing in the first place.

you can get at most core java dependent classes via reflection.

i think we've been over that ground before. having somebody override 
core java or icu4j locale formatting resources is not a good idea. quite 
a bit of thought & research goes into these things (especially icu4j 3.2 
and beyond now that it's based on the CLDR) & i'm willing to bet a beer 
something's going to go badly (think about the parsing issues you'll 
have). me, i'd rather be standard than right ;-)
