Wild Thought #1 ---------------
I'm sick of the whole "open source java" thing going nowhere. I think Gump is in the position to help.
We now have Mono installed on Brutus. We just need to download the ikvm[1] and try to run our java tools on top of a "virtual" java virtual machine running on top of Mono.
Speed is not a real issue here, but it might identify problems with the GNU Classpath problem and create "development hotspots" that might help the GNU Classpath people to find out where they need to focus their
development attention.

Wild Thought #2 ---------------
Gump and Maven have project matadata descriptors that are in XML. I strongly believe it would be way better to have them in RDF, but I know this scares people away.
But now there is DOAP [2] which is pretty cool and might allow me to work on gump for my day job.
I'm going to experiment with that.
