<Tcl/Tk vs. Java>
My only concern is that Java is still a work-in-progress. I will _love_
it when it is stable, but the whole point of FreeBSD is to give us tools
and ports that don't break every new release. The Java guys are still
adapting 1.2 to FreeBSD, and there's no telling where it's going to
stabilize. There are major diffs between 1.1 and 1.2.
