[Advanced-java] Pure Java Logo

I find the "Pure Java" thing kind of useless since it precludes use of
3rd party jar files.  See section 2-4 of:

http://java.sun.com/products/archive/100percent/4.1.1/100PercentPureJava
Cookbook-4_1_1.pdf

where rule 2 says "Depend only on the Java code API".  So if my program
depends on the Apache Axis SOAP client, it's not "Pure Java".  Blah.  

Maybe that's why that initiative is being end-of-lifed :-)

Yours,

Tom
