Java 6: Java kernel available?

[Ted Neward]

True, but I was worried that Googling "Java kernel" would yield up tons of old JavaOS and JavaCPU pages. :-)

Still, I wonder about this componentization of the JRE that Chet's alluding to--where is this work taking place, and is it being reflected in what we see in the OpenJDK builds? I'm curious to see how it's progressing (and potentially affecting the JVM as a whole...).
