Thanks Anjali and all others.
For a change we discussed any thing other than feer of Oracle doing or not doing something about Java. I think If Oracle will indeed make java proprietory or if wants to win the case against google, then invite their directors to India.
We will take them to some shakti stal to worship "ShivaLingum "
:)
Not that I believe a lot in empty worships.
Any ways may harmony be restored to totallity.

Happy hacking.

His name is Lingam and he loves Linux , hence Linux lingam. Now what
is your problem?
Actually his name doesn't have "Lingam" anywhere in it, but it's not for
me to reveal it unless the OP himself chooses (or not, as the case may
be).

On the other hand, the word itself has many connotations in this
country, and objecting to it would be, IMO, tantamount to objecting to a
woman named, say, "Ritu" calling herself "Gauri" ("Gori") on a mailing
list.

Just my 2 paise.  No more from me on this subject.
