I was figuring that a Java port would be interesting, at least
from the architectural viewpoint.

Which brings me to 2 another issues:
  1) Is there/can there be a design document for LWP?
		i.e. something showing what design decisions were made,
		the inheritence employed etc.

  2) Anyone know of a tool to cross-reference Perl programs?
		ie. to show module couplimg, what gets used from where etc?
		- a braindead implementation is easy - you just grep for
		names of subroutines. A more reliable implementation is
		more tricky and would involve building a perl parser.

		Of course, if we are going to have a perl parser it is 
		better to be able to tap into the one already built into
		Perl... would the structure of the innards of current perls
		allow us to do this? Is there a perl module that does parsing
		(none lept out at me when I looked)

Okay, responses appreciated,
	Cheers,
		Martin.
