Well Sun said last week that they would announce their new plans for Java standardization Tuesday. There a day late, but it still came. Here's a News.com article about it... http://www.news.com/News/Item/0,4,36173,00.html?st.ne.fd.gif.h It looks like the speculation that Sun would try to go through ECMA instead of a ISO joint technical committee was true. Does anyone out there have a good grasp on the politics involved in this choice and what the impact is going to be? What is the advantage of Sun going through a different channel if they are still looking for ISO standardization? Well I'll leave it at that. The "Sun Bashing 2" allowed me to state my opinion about all this :^) Ken _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
