Thanks! Next time I'll just check this document linked from the J++ 'pedia page myself before asking.

http://www.ecis.eu/documents/Finalversion_Consumerchoicepape...

Page 16: Kill cross-platform Java by grow[ing] the polluted Java market. (Microsoft internal document.)

Etc etc, with references.

This document could be posted as a story on HN, if anyone wants lots of karma. :-)

We can say one thing for certain -- the "love" here is criminal and violent...
