As you say, it's not the same thing.

Quick summary from my point of view:
Advantages of JGL:
- Closer to the STL way of doing things
Advantages to Collections:
- No extra download
- Better integrated with other Java classes, so you dont need to convert
to a Map/Set/List in order to integrate with feature Y.
- Used by more people
-
Many Java and C compilers are not freely distributable in source form
either, yet we support them... Okay, that's not the same thing, but it
seems we're in the business of spreading the Gospel of Christ not
necessarily the Gospel of Open Source. My point is open source in all its
glory is st
So you are comfortable that Sword will depend on a library that you have
no right to distribute
in source form?
And if ObjectSpace ever pulled the library, you would have to, for all
practical purposes,
stop using it? Seems a high price to pay for something so minor as a
collection class.

Not sure your point. It is freely distributable by us in binary form,
and I'm not trying to gain the world for RMS, but for Christ.
I just read the jgl licence. It's _not_ a free or open-source licence.
