I have no complaint with more focus on Scala and Android.
The iPhone (1) doesn't allow anything like Java to even approach it and
(2) [as I and many others I know see it] is an Orwellian scenario from a
development marketplace perspective -- it's an attempt to lock
developers into a sharecropping situation where the developer has no
power whatsoever.

The interests of these 4 guys have moved on definitely. I'm now
developing on Android and am spending a lot less time listening. I try
to use the podcast to keep up with what is happening in IT and it does
pretty well at that. People are moving on because Java isn't moving.
They can't be blamed for technology changing focus. They seem to be on
the edge usually, and as such are a good listen to understand where
things might be going.

I disagree there is nothing else to talk about in the world of Java.
I mean, how many conferences do we have now centred around Java?
There's plenty there to explore and discuss on the podcast.
No one says it must be all new stuff anyway. I've mentioned in the
past people they could consider interviewing and there's endless
third-party libraries out there that could be discussed.
