So they just used what they knew, which unfortunately is Java. Whereas the proprietary operating systems get nice native applications in one of the operating system's preferred programming languages. Sad. I wonder whether unofficial software (e.g., a port of any of those 3 implementations to C++/Qt) would be allowed or whether there would be legal risks in attempting to use them. (Hopefully, at least exercising the Free Software rights under the license of the official software ought to be safe!)
