Wow, I would have never thought that somebody could share my thoughts. In my beginnings of classpath and libgcj hacking I was a big fan of stubbed methods. But now I see that much methods can be stubbed easily and tools like japitools have a hard time to tell if the method is implemented or just a stub. I vote for no more stubs too.
