Now I know how all my non-computer friends feel when I start rambling on about computer lingo. You might as well have said "bla bla, bla bla bla 30khz, bla sphere, bla bla bla".
anyone else think it looks like the interogation droid from Star Wars?!
Listen, I'm not fully up to date about the arguments for why Java should be open source. If this isn't a GPL like license (is it?) then what good does it have being released? What are people expected to use this for? Will this mean Java is less secure? Are we going to start seeing java specific security issues? Why does anyone want the source code (besides the argument that if Sun went under a lot of applications would be out of support)?
