[e-lang] Microsoft's laws of identity

[John Carlson]

I don't think that using E would help with the problem I described (I'm 
fairly sure it does have the same problem).  Go ahead and use Java.  You 
may want to consider how much security you want to put on the client 
(you may want to make it a web client).  Just be aware that you 
shouldn't pass any capabilities to the client that you don't want the 
caller of the client to have.  I doubt if this will be a problem in your 
case.
