I usually can't stand flame bait like this but I wanted to point out one thing. Sun has clearly recognized some of the advantages of the Open Source model, which is the entire reason why they have adopted the 'Sun Community Source License' for a large number of their products -- including the JD

I think it also worth mentioning that Java is barely 2 years old. Just because we are used to working with developed languages like C, C++ or whatever else tickles your fancy - that doesn't mean we can forcefully matriculate Java to suit our time frame. I honestly believe that Sun is doing the
