Good point.
We just have to make it clear then that they would have to release
their stuff under the GPL as well. If somebody doesn't want to do
that, they can place it elsewhere.
This Maxim guy is making me crazy. Now he complains about the memory
taken by constant pool entries. Not the utf8 itself, but the memory
taken up by the CONSTANT_DATA. For 1000 classes with 100 entries,
this is indeed 500KB.
