Yes. I started with Perl but I had too bad a cold and couldn't
comprehend simple manpages. I'll try again when I'm feeling better

This is the key point,
My experience in volunteer projects is to informally poll the
potential developers for the implementation language and/or platform
and select the one with the most widespread willingness to use/learn
it. Very few volunteer projects end up having performance issues, and
if that happens, you're proba

Uh-huh. You could start reading about the Java Toolset today, and still
not have learned the whole thing twenty years from now. Certainly when
writing any of my own code, I will not have the capability to run PHP,

It depends on what you are doing. One thing is certain, the JavaVM can run Ruby
code competitively and YARV cannot do the reverse.

While the last "ruby shootout" benchmark set is about a year old, it
hardly showed JRuby as a performer. At that time I think it would have
been fair to characterize JRuby as running at about 1/10 the speed of

Other than your personal bias, what do you base that on? Java is, by far, the
highest performance platform of those you have listed. That doesn't consider
the fact that Python, Ruby, Javascript, PHP and many

I would like to help work on a system like this. My choice would be Java
because of the AJAX libraries (especially GWT) it would bring to the table and
the organizational and workeffort modeling in OFBiz. I've already been testing
