It requires that people whose expertise *isn't* Java spend a lot of
time learning Java details.
Now this I agree with. I am sure postgresql hackers are happy to help
the pljava team get things where they need to be, but -hackers needs to
be focusing on releasing 8.3.
Nothing productive will come of a language debate; let's just say there
are things you can do with a complete programming language at your
disposal that you can't do with PL/pgsql. I use Java in the database,
and the current PL/Java works very well. I know C and Java well, and
would be willing to contribute to keeping PL/Java going. I hadn't heard
that Thomas was departing - sorry to hear that. Of course, I'm as
time-constrained as everyone else, but I'd rather see PL/Java move
forward slowly than get dropped.
