Hm... a Java Open Source Process (JOSP)
It is very interesting. The Open Source process hasn't really worked in the
past to build standards. I think they have done a good job at building
standard implementations but not the standard themselves.
The big companies (Microsoft, IBM, SUN, etc) have been the ones creating the
standards. IETF, JCP, W3C, etc are all good examples.
It would be interesting to see if the Open Source process could work for
*creating* standards. At the very minimum it woul be interesting...

Yes... and it is portable. SUN really is brain damaged when it comes to their
philosophy of shoving everything the JDK.
JDK 1.7 will probably be around 100M or so :)
