Thanks for the long explanation.

My concern is that things are not moving at a good enough pace, they are not 
going in the right direction and the slow pace is due to Sun's highly 
bureaucratic governance. Secondly the process isn't open and inviting enough - 
The complete Solaris development has to be opened up - Sun Engineers need to 
develop and discuss in the open - otherwise how will aspiring folks get to know 
the technology and understand the development model? 
<br> <br>
Now people are saying here that it is natural enough for such a project to take 
time to be opened up fully - but no one has clearly explained exactly what is 
taking time. People have done amazing things in less time if you look else 
where. 
<br><br>
Java vs. .NET - I think Microsoft has done a decent job with .NET in short 
time. Look at the time Sun is taking in implementing a nice native looking GUI 
in Java. Look at how much time Sun took just to implement shared classes ? 
Apple had to do it.  The whole JSR process is again highly formal, time 
consuming and burdensome. Sun needs to find a faster and efficient way of doing 
things. Waiting years for things to happen isn't my definition of success. Sun 
should be able to take help from community to fix things as quickly as possible.
<br><br>
Ok so lastly, I am hoping CAB members will be able to speed up things and 
garner interest from lots of developers and we will see a lot of action in 
short time.
