Hmmm...any chance on a link to the article you mention?  I searched around a
little with nothing obvious popping up.  I'm a 0 on this (can you be a 0?)
until I've seen the paper.  (It really doesn't matter too much to me since
I'm in Java2 land, but I'm sure there are others who would care.)

There's a HUGE document somewhere @ Sun explaining why and how
Class.forName() shouldn't be used in JDK 1.2 environments, and that's
the recomandation they give...

I don't know, do I have to change it? Votes?
