 what is this ? -- why don't distros just add a link so users can download
Sun's SDK and JRE ? -instead of re-inventing the wheel ?

A couple of weeks ago I explored Jython as a way to port python programs
to run on the JVM; worked OK(ignoring a couple of flaws) until I tried it
on my Mdk 9.0 distro which comes with 'kaffe' instead of the real thing.

Why re-inventing the wheel ?
