Proposal: zero-assembler port of OpenJDK

[Rob Ross]

I'm late to this discussion, and I'm not a member of any groups so my  
comments don't carry the same weight. But I just wanted to chime in  
and say I think this is a brilliant idea, and it will allow for a  
personal goal of mine to be achieved far easier than otherwise, that  
of being able to port OpenJDK to the Mac OS X platform running on PPC  
hardware.
