[cairo] Java Cairo and windows?

So yes my plan is a) 
Why?  - To try and get the app working in a java applet in a browser (I know, ew...)

But I've also realised java-cairo via jython may not even be the same api as python-cairo (although I would not expect too many differences)...

Next time I get a chance I'll try this in linux, as adding win32 straight away is just too much !

Options:
a) why ruin a perfectly cross fine python app? python/cairo works everywhere!
b) create you're own gfx abstraction on top of cairo and java2d
c) implement the cairo api on top of java2d
d) wrap cairo yourself with whatever dark machinery java requires

my vote goes to (a) :-)
