Sun’s CEO Jonathan Schwartz announced in his blog about the The Rise of JAVA – The Retirement of SUNW. Many reactions on this can be read on the web, including the comments on Jonathan’s blog; too many for me to read. But below are my observations…
Two very important and critical messages are embedded within this announcement:
- That Sun Microsystems is very committed to Java
- That Java is not going, and it will never go, or be released to the hands of the Java community; it will remain Sun’s proprietary technology
