Hi,

I used buoy when I wrote SimpleQueryPlugIn. After that, the plugin has 
been included in OpenJUMP's core.

Buoy has been written by a single developper which is also the author of 
aoi (art of illusion), a fantastic 3D modelling and rendering software.
At that time, I thought that buoy could become a great library for ui 
development.
Now, I still consider buoy as a very cool library, but I can see that 
adoption by java community is very slow, and you are right, adding such 
a library for only one plugin is not worthwhile.
Some scenarios for the future of buoy in OJ are :
- let buoy and simple query as it is (+200 ko does not hurt much)
- remove buoy + simple query from the core (I would not have any problem 
with that, there are now some good stuff from vivid for querying, even 
if some queries are easier to do with simplequery, it can always be 
delivered as an extension)
- rewrite simple query to remove all buoy dependencies (probably not too 
hard, but also not too high in my priority list)

my 2 cents
