> The desire to work together is core to my thesis that there is a
Jakarta community here.
There often seems to be an assumption that our resources, or community,
is limited. There are a great number of Java developers in the world,
and our numbers grow every day. A project like Struts, with a clear
internal focus on J2EE compatability can easily attract developers that
would not otherwise contribute. I happen to be one.
When considering the merits of a product, it is important to consider
the human factor of both our users and developers. It's no secret the
teams working on competiting solutions often "hate each other". Maybe
that's a good thing. It may not be as efficient, but given the human
factor, duplicating resources and fostering competition is usually more
* effective * than "benevolent" cooperation.
We need more than just science. We need scientists.
Are we developers looking for projects, or products looking for
developers?
Are we building a cathedral, or a bazaar?
