- James, there are lots of coherent reasons for making Java open source.
-
One is that a lot more people all over the world will tinker with Java and figure out ways to make it better, things to add, etc. There will be a number of brilliant ideas that Sun would have never thought of. These will get folded into the "official" Java version making it better than it ever could have been.
This will also make Java universal since there will be no licensing issues anymore.
If Sun would have done this say 5 years ago, they would not have let MS get a foot in the door with .NET. - Posted by: DonnieBoy Posted on: 05/18/06 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
