Sun 'Calls JBoss bluff' on J2EE compliance

joshmccormack writes "According to c|net's news.com Sun has finally responded to JBoss Group's request for J2EE compliance testing. Simon Phipps, Sun's chief technology evangelist stated in the article he thinks JBoss Group is bluffing, that their code won't pass the tests, and that some of the code is just copied from Sun."

    You're just jealous your posts don't capture as many eyeballs as mine do. ;-)

    You obviously don't know sh^H^H much about J2EE.

    Forgive me for asking. Do you hang out in IRC and tell newbies to go RTFM as well?

    Did you notice the "ROFL!!!!!" part of the post????? I *realize* it was a joke. Try reading before making a fool of yourself.

    You said I said:
    J2EE standard says otherwise, then [..] JBoss is not compliant.

    That's nice - you omitted the question mark I put at the end of that sentence. If we choose not to ignore that, then this:

    It seems to me that you have a serious English problem with understanding causes and their effects

    Is just you trying to put words in my mouth (or just insulting me by implying that my grasp of English is somehow more deficient than yours?). I was quoting two pieces of the article that seemed at odds with each other, verbatim, and then asking a question about them.

    Or maybe I should say RTFA

    Indeed.

    Number of Windows related viruses over the years...
    Too many to count

    Cost due to Windows server based attacks on a global scale...
    gazillions

    Number of Linux viruses released to the masses...
    1 maybe 2

    The cost due to a Linux virus on a global scale...
    0 USD.

    The price for a Linux admin's good night's rest because he/she doesn't have to worry about security attacks? Priceless...


    For everything else, there's a CC EAL4 cert, symantic or norton.
