JOIN US!! persons who hate JAVA!!

Seriously though, you gotta be into S&M if you decide to develop something in Java yourself and you'll be doing part of the job.

All the interaction with API is nessacry though in order to properly follow the OOP approach.

My gripe with Java is just the utter slowness. Yes it goes though an interpreter (hence why its OS independent) but its been so many years Sun should have tried to improve it.
