Java cleaned up all the library mess for c/c++ and had one standard on how to continue, do communications, UIs (or the promise), etc. I wonder if a new language that wants to win the market has to provide easy clustering, a good app server, a good way to write UIs and maybe a model that works as well as a web based app as a desktop app. Will it even be possible to replace java or are we at the point where replacing java would be just too much work and too costly?
