A doubt on the definition. 1. A lot of clients (mostly American and European) with whom I work with do use Linux and a few Apache products. When i say they use Linux, they use it as the base OS for their servers to run on. They run IBM Websphere server on a RedHat. The end user is not even aware of these. Infact many Java projects are executed this way. They either use a Linux box or a AIX/HPUX/Solaris box. But most of the test environments are on Linux and some (read many) production environments are either Linux or any of the *NIX. Do these qualify? 2. A lot of organizations (still sticking on to Java/J2EE) use Apache TomCat, RedHat - JBOSS and Eclipse IDE for their servers/development environments. Do these qualify as well? Even those running Websphere/ Weblogic may still be using Eclipse. PS: I work for a SWITCH company. And most of the work we do are not commercial products, but are still proprietary that are to be used only within the organization. Cheers, Natarajan. _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
