Well.. if it went away.. I'd be pretty unhappy.  I'm not guaranteeing that I'll
keep it up to date.. but if it stays.. I'll try.  (unless someone wants to
write one in GTK)  Basically.. point blank.. Java isn't free.  It's also very
difficult to get a jdk or runtime for certain OS/arches other than
linux/freebsd/i386/Solamis.  I agree the Java one is probably the way to
go..as it's most likely easier for most people to use.  I however.. would be
utterly screwed without the xlib one.  And if I ever tackle some maps.. I guess
I'm going to have to fix what needs to be fixed to do so.
