An edit on February 19, 2006 by TuukkaH had changed a parenthetical definition of unchecked exceptions from "RuntimeExceptions and Errors" to "RuntimeExceptions and non-Exception Throwables". I don't believe this revision is correct (it doesn't agree with the JLS), but wanted to open a dialog here to confirm consensus on reverting. This revision would, for example, imply that a class Foo that directly extends Throwable is unchecked, which isn't the case. --Mike Fikes 14:33, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing my thinko, I've now reverted it. --TuukkaH 23:55, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
