heh...you can get 25 million these days for ANYTHING. for instance, desktop.com which is a javascript-driven method for providing free file upload and download and calculators!
first of all it IS their site - if they dont want to be searched by a given entity they should be given that respect. this doesnt really infringe on our right to link i think - crawling a site and extracting metadata in order to merge prices with other similar sites is a lot different, and infringes on ebay's core business.
yeah i was joking. anyway sun basically doesn't want some standards group telling them what to do; the whole reason they went to ECMA is because they thought those guys would be a pushover and now that IBM HP etc. are over there getting involved sun is taking their marbles home so no one can play. right now sun has ibm etc. by the nuts; i don't really care as sun has done a good job on the api's so far and its inevitable that they'll give up control at some point.
basically microsoft has proven that his industry comes down to who controls the apis. given the move of ecommerce towards java as a standard development platform...i'd say that as of today sun is winning the api game.
linux must be released from the tyranny of linus torvalds and full control of the kernel should be turned over to a byzantine european standards body composed of retirees from groupe bull and versace who will spend 6 years arguing over the relative merits of creating a steering group to debate an initiative to consider adding better smp capabilities
aha! the most interesting part of the article. soon we will have more bangalore-type enclaves within the third world where people are doing development at a third of the salary of U.S.-based engineers. Of course for projects which are not as clearly spec'd out these guys won't be as userful but i definitely expect basic programming to begin to get farmed out more and more...
