Hello,

First of all I would like to congratulate and thank the Java Development team
for a wonderful job they are doing.. I have been following/using Java since its early
days (or nights). It has proven to be very useful and has matured into a very robust environment.
Along with the compliments, I also have a couple of suggestions..


Suggestions/Requests:
1. I was wondering if there were any plans to support ICMP and/or RAW sockets
    using Java just as standard TCP and UDP is supported in the core java.net system.

2. I think Java (used along with PICO chips) can prove to be a very useful
    Printer language. If SUN could convince major printer companies to utilize PICO
    and Java together. This could give "true pinter definition independence".
    It would also solve the "Printing Workarounds" in Java.
    Feel free to contact me on the address below if this sounds unclear
    or if you are interested in what I had in mind..

Thank You
