I didn't really expect a different reaction from a member of the "NetBeans
Dream Team" :-)

To me, the fact that a technology goes through the trouble of listing users
on their web site is usually an indication that this technology is close to
dead (take a look at the Jini wiki <http://www.jini.org/> for another funny
example).

Successful technologies don't need to list their users because there are so
many of them.

Anyway, I understand that unlike me, you have a vested interest in the
subject so I don't expect you to agree with my assessment.
