I always thought Service-Oriented-Architecture was a a devteam take-a-
break bullshit word.

You know, something you tell the brass so they get off your back for a
month or two, giving the team time to spend some much needed time in
feature-freeze, cleaning up stuff, refactoring code to be more
maintainable for the future, and turning hacked together workarounds
into proper fixes. Once you're done, you tell management you have the
exact same thing you had before, except it's now all smoother and more
maintainable (true), and that it is because "it now has more
SOA" (which is false, as SOA is meaningless blather).

I guess I'm wrong.


On a total sidenote, Oracle has not acquired sun yet. The notion that
netbeans is out to get you to move towards for-pay oracle products
now, well short than a year after a sale to oracle was likely, strikes
me as extremely paranoid behaviour that is obviously not true. The
fact that some (ex-)netbeans developers and many sun engineers read
these forums only adds to the extreme rudeness of this kind of
paranoid rambling. Please consider that when you next post your
delusions.
