First, you misquote me. I never said what you attribute to me. I said that I _doubted_ the failure was unintentional -- meaning that, IMHO, it was _intentional_.

I have already said I am willing to call it an "alleged failure" rather than a "failure" if that makes you feel better, but I think MSFT has pretty much admitted that they've left out JNI and RMI support, so I doubt whether that will even be an issue. See:
microsoft.com
"Internet Explorer 4.0 substitutes COM support instead of RMI, Microsoft digital signing technology for Java applets, and J/Direct in place of the JNI."

One source you might like to review is:
javaworld.com
which details some of the changes MSFT made, as found by the author of that article.

JMHO, as always.
