Platform Support

Hi

The JVM under discussion will obviously support multiple platforms, running 
under Linux, Windows, etc. Will it also support other platforms as in being 
"modular enough" to be composed to run on Pocket PC or cellphones (j2me) or 
is such support outside of the initial scope for this project?

Thanks

Yes.  One of the motivations is to reduce the amount of work someone  
wishing to have a compatible version of J2SE on a "new" platform - be  
it new hardware, new operating system, or even new kinds of  
performance optimizations on existing platforms.
