Version 2 is a new name for version 1.1; apparently Sun got tired of
people confusing 1.1 and 1.0.1, and decided to solve the confusion by
renaming 1.1. (The confusion was bad, especially because people
confused the minor speedups in 1.0.1 with the promised major speedups
in 1.1 (now 2), and complained that they were so small. Of course, it
is now even worse, since people now tend to believe that 1.1 and 2 are
different releases...)
