Hi everyone,

you might have noticed (e.g. via the blog post [1] which gained a lot of publicity) that the future of Java is very uncertain. Maybe the next version won't be an open standard anymore.

Hi All

I agree there are a lot of technologies like PHP, .NET, cgi, python...... etc. which could work for us.

But I think we should consider a technology which could compete JAVA. As in my view PHP or Microsoft Technologies like ASP/ASP.NET are not worth considering.

I think we should consider something robust like Ruby on Rails, Python, Perl etc...


Please comment...

I think we should seriously consider migrating to another platform. I'm sure there must be good reasons that most CMS's are written in PHP anyway. There are some quite powerful frameworks (Zend, PEAR) to implement complex web applications. Combined with a mature JavaScript library like Dojo or YUI we could create a productive system in an acceptable timeframe. I think moving to PHP would also help to increase the potential user base.

BTW, recently I did a project using .Net, and I was very positively suprised and think it would be a viable alternative. We could finally get rid of those endorsed libraries issues and of all our legacy code.

Maybe there are other platforms worth considering? E.g. Ruby on Rails?
