Yes, and I have applets firmly in mind as I start thinking about
modularizing/stripping/shrinking JRuby. Applets are a little less
restrictive than either JavaME or Android, since we'll have a "full"
Java impl, but we still need to make things more modular and make it
easier to ship only what you need. I suspect the same logic will apply
equally to applet and Android deployments (jruby-cdc is a separate fork
for JavaME that will live a life of its own).
