E a boataria sobre a possibilidade do Java se tornar open source continua: Sun says open-source Java possible in ‘months’
[quote]The move won’t be easy, said a former Sun employee. The company has a rigid old guard of middle managers who have opposed open sourcing Java, said Denese Cooper, who worked on open-source projects at Sun for six years and is on the board of the Open Source Initiative.
“What they have to do in order to make it work is either retarget or somehow indoctrinate these people who have been guarding the gates against viable open sourcing of Java for all these years,” Cooper said. “It’s going to be interesting to see what other moves they will have to make to make that happen.” [/quote]
Mas o que mais me assustou na notícia foi isso:
Alguém confirma isso? Até onde eu vi, o Classpath ainda não conseguiu nem implementar o Java 1.2 completo, como é que eles já estão com “90% do java 1.5” prontos?
