A long time ago, I ran JSword on an IBM Mainframe.

It has been working for ages on BSD and Solaris. Both of which are not  
Linux.

For over 10 years I had a Sun workstation (at work) that ran neither  
Gnome or KDE. I don't know what the story is today. So I would have  
welcomed knowing that I had an option.

My guess is that nearly no one (on a percentage basis) runs on  
something other than Windows, Mac or Linux. And those that do, are  
fairly computer savvy and can find a solution. A little help is good,  
though.

So, I don't think that a top level Java icon is necessary. Maybe a  
blurb  or link link to a page on the main software page would suffice,  
but even that might not be necessary.
