If IBM buys Sun, I wonder if they'll orphan OpenJDK. They can't un-open-source it, but they could stop contributing or supporting it in any way.
OpenJDK seems too open for IBM's tastes and isn't based on J9 and thus may fall afoul of "not invented here" knee jerk reactions. Personally even apart from having source to Sun's JVM, I've much preferred its behavior and reliability. -- Jess Holle --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
