Well this pisses me off to no end to be quite honest, I started that other thread just to get some interesting conversation started on this topic (which will affect you even if you don't care) and now it has devolved into a flame war ... with the horrible outcome of completely turning Dick off the whole topic.
That's a disaster. Dick, let me just say that the podcast has resulted in everybody having more information ... and I think if you focus on things like this thread and Eric's blog post* you are missing the good that it has done. In my view, I like that you guys did this because a lot of the technical arguments (and some of the business reasons) might not have been explained well in conferences and this has given everybody at least a starting point in those discussions. I would hope that you guys continue doing this, specially for apparently touchy subjects like this, but I understand if you are completely turned off by the whole thing as well. * Eric, I'll have to sort of repost it here again as I replied in your blog post but you didn't approve the comment but your post is extremely unfair. Yes there have been some replies here that have been insulting (and uniformed) to what I perceive is your "side" but you are not only being unfair to the guys who make these podcast you are being very unfair to everybody who has posted on this topic in that other thread. Not all of us have been bashing OSGi *at all*. A lot of people are just not familiar with it, and instead of turning this into an opportunity to raise awareness of the technology post like that one cause things like now people not wanting to talk about this at all. Which, unfortunately for me, is the exact opposite of why I started that other thread. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
