Most definitely if there are JVM limitations preventing certain 
languages from performing well (or being implemented at all) they should 
be shared. Probably here if it's more a discussion of high-level 
features and high-level ideas for implementing them, but then perhaps 
moving to the MLVM list if discussing the dirty details of implementing 
those features on OpenJDK/DaVinci.

By all means...share the load!
