in reply to Perl5 to Java compiler - first release

thanks and ++fglock it seems a very big job what you have done.

I read the brief blog post and lurked here and there into the github docs.

I'm a just-perl coder, really: i do not even consider hardware where Perl cannot run.

Can I ask, without any malicious intention, where and why and how i can profit translating my perl code into java?

I'm very ignorant in many many IT fields, but if i force my brain to imagine where i may need java i just come out with phones (another field where i know nothing) and client side code in browsers.

Might be i'm totally missing the point (it happens), but anyway can you be so kind to show some scenarios where this translation can be a profitable thing?

my best wishes for your project
