There are also some additional enhancements that Sun
may introduce in the 1.5 release. However they may be
postponed to a future relase as the deadlines are
getting closer and closer:

- Metal Look And Feel Improvements:
Sun is going to make the Metal LnF more appealing

- Shared VM:
A single VM per an application introduces a lot
of overhead specially for small programs. Sun is
going to make it possible to use a single VM in
more than one program.
