Hi Rony,

It's possible to have 2 public static no-args method "provider" in a 
service provider *class file*, JVM spec allows it, as method return type 
is also part of method descriptor.

And I still have questions:
Why need to have this restriction in java API doc? Will there be 
corresponding update in JVM spec? When will this restriction be 
verified, at linking time?

Thank you
