        You're smoking some good stuff here Tom ;-> Oracle are no doubt
improving the situation they inherited in Java just fine. Last I heard
rumour that RedHat were stepping up to support older versions too.

        It's a sensible thing to use Java for writing cross-platform
LibreOffice extensions. The only problem we have is with writing core
functionality in Java - since we can't be sure of the presence of a
suitable JVM on Windows machines.

        HTH,

                Michael.
