As a non-native English speaker, what would the pear-shape refer to?
I don't get that idiomatic expression at all...!

I did get that, actually. The "hahaha!"-reply to your sole sentence was my

was directed to Zerbe's "Yup, J2EE's what you want, go on with the MBDs",
which I actually considered to be an actual serious suggestion. I might
have gotten that wrong, though..
