Indeed, yikes! :) Perl is capable of supporting MVC and ORMs. Rewriting Koha in Java, no matter how carefully planned, would be a time consuming process, and the result would almost certainly be worse than simply writing a new Java-based ILS from scratch. That is not to say, however, that there couldn't be some interesting experiments to try getting Koha and Java code to interoperate, and if/when Koha adopts Perl 6, Parrot might provide a bridge as well.
