The Apache/Sun Relationship Worsens

Posted by Hemos on from the gotta-loosen-your-grip-on-java dept.

d6y writes "Over on the O'Reilly weblogs there's an entry on the relationship between Sun's Java Community Process and Apache. Sun have been rubbing people up with wrong way (the problems of licensing open source J2EE containers; stuts v. JavaFaces; log4j v. JDK 1.4 logging....) and I hope this gets sorted out real soon. See also the original VNUNet article and Apache's position paper."

    If Sun's antics are making you ill, why not help out the folks at Ximian on Mono? It is backed by a REAL ECMA standard and not controlled by one company. Sure it's based on an MS product, but at least MS had the balls to submit it to a standards body and NOT retract it.
