Hi,

being written in Java does not necessarily count as a disadvantage for me. It 
may even be an advantage for webframeworks that compile your js/css files that 
they can natively link against a compressor.
So please keep yui-compressor in the archive.
I also feel a little bit more comfortable using the same compressor for yui as 
is used and heavily tested by upstream.
