Hello there,
 I have a few questions about the Isolate API and i would appreciate any 
response. I am sorry if my questions sound stupid but i just want to make 
sure if things are as i see them or the right angle to view them.
 My first question is, i have read all the background papers which lead to 
the Isolate API. If i am not wrong is the Isolate API pretty much the same 
approach adopted in the paper "Application Isolation in Java Virtual 
Machine". The only difference is that instead of doing it using the bytcode 
transformation its done at the runtime level and in a more sophisticated 
manner.
 The second question is about class versioning. Does the Isolate mechanism 
let different application use the same class but of different versions?
 Thanks for your answers
 Regards
 T
