Quote from Stefano on harmony-dev:

Let's analyze it on the other way: why not?

1) because it's already there. [Ask Ben how much he loves java on FreeBSD]

2) because it's hard. [Ask Linus about how easy it was to write Linux]

3) because it might fragment the space. [Ask around how many of us would
want to rewrite millions of lines of their code]

4) because it's an academic exercise [ask Larry and Sergey about thier
academic exercise called Google]

5) because it might hurt the java ecosystem [ask darwin and/or your
favorite anti-trust lawyer on how concentrations increases innovation]

6) because it's not fun [ask the people that spend their time writing
new GC algorithms!]

7) because it might take years [ask around how many are in a hurry]

Should I continue?
