That is a bit odd, but kudos to them for finding a new way to play with the word "Java". I thought they'd all been used up by the late 90s.

Yeah, exactly. I was looking at the logo, and I thought "huh, that looks exactly like the Dutch East Indies company logo!"

After ctrl-f'ing to the first mention of "Dutch", I had to chuckle at their explanation though.

Besides, it's not like most technical product/project names are so great. I enjoyed this reference & their pun.
