If you get to watch Mark Reinhold's segment in the Java One technical keynote this year, pay close attention to the operating system he uses in the demo: http://channelsun.sun.com/video/events/javaone/1631259661/chapter+2:+javaone+2009+sun+technical+general+session/25089975001 > And thanks for the popcorn link, it will come in handy when I'm over > on the Linux Action show forums :D There is no lack of data out there, fwiw - here's Debian's (more server oriented distribution) popcon data by percentage of voting installations over time: http://qa.debian.org/popcon-graph.php?packages=sun-java5-jre%2C+sun-java6-jre%2C+openjdk-6-jre%2C+mono-runtime&show_vote=on&want_percent=on&want_legend=on&want_ticks=on&from_date=&to_date=&hlght_date=&date_fmt=%25Y-%25m&beenhere=1 Doesn't look like Java is doing dramatically bad on Debian GNU/Linux either to me. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
