Well, for me I guess it will depend on how much "coming to grips" I
have to do.  If it is much more than clicking on some automation tool
to generate boilerplate (leinengen?), or typing in "java -jar blah
blah" at a command prompt, I'm outta here.  I have been offered money
to program in java in the past.  I turned it down, turning the phrase
"you couldn't pay me to program in java" into a reality.  It's fair to
state that I hate java more than any other language.  I'd rather
program in COBOL than java.
