 >> Could IBM intercept the w-code output of the ILE compilers and convert
it to some form of Java?

Well it doesn't work that way, but of course VARPG can output Java as an
alternative to w-code.  So IBM already has the basic technology.  However,
given the investment they have made with WebFacing I don't see it happening
any time soon.  As others have pointed out, there are third party
alternatives.
