AJAX = Asynchronous Javascript And XML
Javascript != Java

AJAX isn't a language and doesn't have anything to do with Java.

Of course, roundcube might use Java AND AJAX or even use Java to generate 
the Javascript and/or XML parts of AJAX.  But you don't write applications 
in AJAX (as you state), you write them using AJAX and using AJAX doesn't 
automatically add a dependency on Java (as you imply).
