keep the more terms that have very negative overtones like FUD out of

In this list the term FUD is so inflationary used, that i just used it too. But you must admit that you can rarely say something positive about java right? And you spoke about 3rd party libs, not products. We have a deal, but then please pay attention to the terms. We dont want to alienate first time java users with sentences that sound like you dont get any libraries for that language, in fact you get tons of that everywhere you look. For people considering doing this language and coming from RPG, the 3rd party lib support is just plain unbelivable.


Its somehow crazy that even being in a java list, i find myself defending the language over and over again.
