I tried to post the following to your blog, but apparently it didn't get
through. Here is some historical info on the old pre-2003 and early
VMClass interface discussions in GNU Classpath:
One of the earlier discussions/documentation on changing the GNU
Classpath VM layers was in 2003 during the GNU Classpath
Workshop at the LinuxCongress 2003:
http://www.linux-kongress.org/2003/bofs/index.html
Slides are at:
http://klomp.org/mark/classpath/slides/gnu_classpath_workshop.html
In particular onwards from slide 10, it is explained why we
wanted to switch to the VMClass design:

Which later also incorporated other stuff like the VM classes in
io, net, etc.
Cheers,
Mark
