I realize that everyone makes their own choice, it just seems that Java is the dominant language.

I find it paradoxical that the Apache org claims to be pragmatic, yet insists on the Apache license + no relicensing. -Keith --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: general-unsubscr...@incubator.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: general-h...@incubator.apache.org
