What's wrong with Java?

An internal memo from Sun about what's wrong with Java:

• The support model seems flawed
• The JRE is very large.
• Extensions do not support modularity.
• It is not backward-compatible across minor releases.

Interestingly enough, the memo goes on to compare Java to Python, with Java coming out of it not looking very good.
