Ok, but you can pick up books that document the Class Libraries and the
language specification too.  I'm sure, sooner, or later, there'll be a Jini
book too, but I'll forgo that point for now.  I simply think that we're
first and foremost concerned with getting a JVM, compiler and base class
library, which I think could be done by people not exposed to the SCSL or
any SCSL protected material.
