Interesting calendar you've got there...  Must be the stock Java 1.02
one <g>.

That a rename was going to happen was known around May.  Then there
was a couple months of arguing (polls on hot Java web sites, etc.). 
Much hue and cry over which location it should be moved to (or not
moved to), etc.

The final location decision was made after 2.01 was done.  I suspect
it was made too late on the dev cycle for our competetion over in Cafe
land, too.  This is not trivial "rename and recompile" stuff, I assure
you!  It's one thing to anticipate a change, but you can't stop your
company because you know, at some point in the future, a big change is
going to happen.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
