I'd agree with Alan; Python or Ruby seem to me to be simpler to work
with than Java for scripting type tasks which is what the co-ordinator

One thing worth noting is that Java is much less common on Linux than
either Python or Ruby, as the licensing made it hard to ship the Sun
implementation. Whereas there are very good implementations of both
Python and Ruby for Windows.
