Oh I recall comments like "seriously, I hope it goes away and dies", but I don't think it's beneficial to dig deeper into that - prefer to hope for more openness and healthy pollination in the future. If you go back in time, you'll notice this is not the same posse gang as just 3-4 years ago (Joe doing no development, Dick doing Scala, Tor now on bastard Java Android etc.). I understand the argument that .NET is not multi-platform quite the same way as the JRE is, yet arguable C# is a more free standard than Java and the Mac crowd likely has to get used to a community JRE in much the same way as they have always had to rely on a community CLR (Mono). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
