James Gosling Grades Oracle's Handling of Sun's Tech

snydeq writes "With the four-year anniversary of Oracle's Sun Microsystems acquisition looming, InfoWorld reached out to Java founder James Gosling to rate how Oracle has done in shepherding Sun technology. Gosling gives Oracle eyebrow-raising grades, lauding Oracle's handling of Java, despite his past acrimony toward Oracle over Java (remember those T-shirts?), and giving Oracle a flat-out failing grade on what has become of Solaris OS."

I wish java apps would die, along with the people who wrote them, because they NEVER follow the native platform UI. They are all kind of a native app, only a little more sluggish, and the windows don't look quite right, and the menu's aren't organized properly. All in the name of saving a buck making a cross-platform version or using those highly training Indian programming group that only knows java.
