Well it really depends on what I was building. If I was developing a

developing an e-commerce web site you'd be nuts to do that.
But then you'd probably use java to isolate yourself as much as possible
from silly API changes in OS and distributions... And fedora hasn't been a
great place to use java.
I'm not a Java developer (I've written a few "Hello World" type things
but nothing more complex than that) but from what I've seen from
deploying a few Java-based systems is that while the "core" Java API
may be stable, "real-world" Java systems have dependencies on things
like Tomcat/Apache or other similar systems and are highly dependent
on particular versions of those apps and associated libraries.
Agreed, but I'm not sure where this point leads. Fedora has been fairly
horrible about consistency in those areas too.
