My understanding of (at least) JRuby is that "using the *** Java SDK" 
and "using JRuby" are not mutually exclusive, since JRuby can deal 
directly with Java classes.  (It [with the help of Monkeybars] makes 
Swing easier to work with, that's for sure!)

Yes indeed...of course, Adobe and Microsoft aren't exactly small 
potatoes, as much as we might like them to be...
