I wouldn't expect them to say anything critical, but lets be honest, whole teams don't jump from one boat to another unless there is some serious concerns about the ship sea-worthiness or the direction its being headed in.
This doesn't signal the end of Ruby or other languages on the JVM, it is more an indication of how far Sun will go to support them. You can't tell me that hiring and paying individuals to support an alternate language on the JVM is the same commitment level as standing by and letting others do the work on the free time (or sponsered by another company). The question isn't "Does this signal the end of alternate languages on the JVM", I think we all know it doesn't, but it does signal that Sun isn't giving the same level of commitment to them that it has previously. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
