Chi-Ming Yang has raised a question which relates to philosophies of

live on any platform and bypass the window managers?

There is the additional interest of things written in Java that aren't
necessarily intended to run just anywhere. For example, since Gnome is
corba-based, you could write Gnome apps in Java, or perhaps have a
cross-platform app that's Gnome-enabled when running with Gnome.
Eventually issues like these will outgrow the java-linux mailing list.
