Absolutely true on Bloch. Listen to Himself, Gafter or Gosling on this. He was the massive Spanner in the BGGA proposal.
Tim Berners Lee, was attributed with the Internet invention BTW. No, like so many others on this forum you simply respond on one side in a thread and then claim 'I never said that', very weak. As posted previously these so called "experts" aren't really experts because you get Jokes like J2EE & J2ME ratified I would of rather asked a monkey rather than the so called "experts" on those bastard creations On Thu, Dec 9, 2010 at 12:56 PM, Miroslav Pokorny < [email protected]> wrote: > > > 2010/12/9 Cédric Beust ♔ <[email protected]> > >> >> >> On Wed, Dec 8, 2010 at 7:44 PM, Liam Knox <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> Your sentiment that a Bank should not be on the JCP. >>> >> >> > > Please quote me accurately - i quite clearly said a bank should not be > voting on Java 7 and 8 when there are others that should or better choices. > Banks know best about banking they should thus definitely be on JSRs that > involve stuff closest to their expertise. > > > >> Now where did you ever get the impression that I said that?!?
