According to a news post on the Haiku project website, a new port team is being formed to bring Java technologies to the Haiku platform. The goal of the Haiku Java Team is to port OpenJDK to Haiku, and they would like to see the port included within the structure of Sun's OpenJDK project. The Haiku developers have already been in contact with members of the OpenJDK Porters Group to pursue their objective, and a formal proposal has also been submitted for consideration by the OpenJDK project. The Haiku Java Team is an initiative lead by Bryan Varner, who together with Andrew Bachmann worked on the port of Java to BeOS in the past (demo video).

The stone age encompassed 2000? Uh, no - unless you forgot a few more zeros at the end.
I believe the appropriate sentiment is: I hope the door didn't hit you on the way out. The BeOS community certainly isn't diminished by the absence of people who choose operating systems based on political concerns, rather than practical merits.
