C#/.Net has some things that are definitely worth considering:
#1) Can easily use C++/C#/J#/C libraries without having to do odd
imports. I.e. it is language neutral without the overhead of
CORBA
#2) The attributes/delegates functionality of C# is very powerful.
The Avalon team has been looking into mimicking that functionality
in Java. We have support for Delegates (of a fashion), but the
attributes are more difficult. BTW, Attribtutes are the key to
successful and predictable AOP (Aspect Oriented Programming).
Can Cocoon work with Windows/Solaris/AIX/AS400/Linux/put your JVM here?
Yes! And that is its biggest strength. However, there are other things
that we might want to do where Java limits us.
