@XerTheSquirrel Are we getting techncial? I'd like to know why you chose to implement Java ME in Java SE. Just path of least resistance?

@ari Well SquirrelJME is just a hobby project. Also Java ME is far smaller than Java SE, I tried Java SE but I was driven to insanity. But I think a smaller tinier Java is pretty interesting, so I decided to do that instead. Also there will be J2ME compatibility also.

As for StringBuffer it is just a thread safe StringBuilder, so it is easy to implement.

@ari I have not really made progress on the project as I have been going in many circles, but this time I have gotten much more organized so you can see progress here: github.com/XerTheSquirrel/Squi .
