There is a lot of insight in this <loop>. Sun is doing a great job at convincing
people to use their technology. This is truly a Herculean task and imho constitutes a
major achievement for Sun.
We should perhaps learn from their JCP model. This is what I *think* they do:
1) Identify a problem area.
2) Find a number of experts willing to contribute.
3) Designate a leader.
4) Define requirements.
5)
The ordering of (2) and (3) can be inverted.
