I'm sending a bcc to Monica Pawlin at Sun. She has some involvement with 
Java, I'm hoping she can refer this to someone at Sun who matters.

We have corresponded wrt Java and Blackboys (they're trees) before, and 
she told be about the Sun/Ubuntu announcement.

Monica, I think you don't have a working email address for me, you 
certainly can't reach this one. summer js.id.au  will do.
