to normalise your list with the Free On-line Dictionary of Computing 
(http://wombat.doc.ic.ac.uk/foldoc, thank you for the pointer) we could 
change the occurance of jit in your list to ''something-else'' (is there 
a good name? anybody?)

and add

* JIT (Compiled to native code at startup, ie: java with jit)
* Incremental JIT (Compiled to native code when executed, ie: java with 
hot-spot)

please correct my examples if they are no longer correct. and suggest 
better ones.

i suggest this is something for the faq. would it be possible to add the 
list to it?
