Many uninformed people such as Hani, will claim that opensource deos nto
work or as aJava Developer you arte immune from using OpenSource. Well the
fact is He and SUn are wrong. Why?
Go to
JCP.org and count the number of approved jsrs that have opensource
contributions such as awt, swing, enterprise java, and etc. Now eliminate
the ones you do not directly use. Chances are you are still left with
parts of java that have recevied OpenSource contributions every day.
Its not Sun versus OpenSource people or Java versus OpenSource; putting it in
that light is not only bold face FUD but alos lying to yourself. Now how
foolish is it for you as a java developer to complain about open source or
open source development methods that you receive direct benefits through
jcp in new java innovations and technology?
