FYI: "Ground work laid for Open Source Java" http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/28337.html (ComputerWire via The Register)
Some highlights: "Java Community Process (JCP) members have voted to alter the community's structure, officially supporting open source implementations of Java. Called JCP 2.5, changes were approved on October 29." "The first instance of Java expected to be open sourced under these changes is the Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) 1.4 platform, which Santa Clara, California-based Sun said is due in the first quarter of 2003." Hardly big news, but worth a look (at least it mentions Jakarta). Un saludo, Alex Fernández.
