CPAN Shifts Focus

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the java-means-quality-if-you're-on-crack dept.

cascadefx writes "Looks like CPAN has changed its focus to support Java now. A look at their page shows that is is now CJAN, the Comprehensive Java Archive Network where you will find all things Java." This should be a great boon to Java, a language renown for, well, sucking. But at the expense of the greatest of all languages? It's just too sad for me to express in words. I mean, who uses java anyway?

    This story is fake, but it did inspire me to do a Google search, which turned up CJAN: Comprehensive Java Archive Network. It's not up yet (the front page is just a blog), but it's coming. Seriously.
