IIRC, the position Those Who Take Positions took on this back when
positions were taken was the position that we'll write code that a free
Java implementation can run. Apparently, free Java implementations now
support quite a few Java 2 features. Which led to my question if the
position taken back when positions were taken is possibly the precise
position we would like to position ourselves in, perhaps.
