It's me... :) No, seriously, logos and so on are a _very_ serious matter... A couple of years ago we ran into troubles because we used the sketch of an Native American Indian sitting in front of a cup of coffee for Java.Apache.ORG (well, also the name was kind of a pain, got into "troubles" for that too).

Response to appeal
Greetings, In just 24 hours, over sixty individuals have responded with their personalized request to Sun. Their requests as well as my critique of JSR47 can be found at http://jakarta.apache.org/log4j/docs/critique.html I am very happy about both the volume and quality of these requests but I am sure we can do better. It is becoming increasingly evident that no one will be happy about the upcoming logging API from Sun. I invite you to join our community in protest against the pollution of the Java environment with dubious APIs. Thank you in advance, Ceki Gülcü - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Do they > hire people? Allocate time for the tasks using Project? Even draw a > PowerPoint or two to show around? Actually, I think all of the products mentioned in the article materialized. The COM support in the MS JVM was (and still is) really cool. The IDE mentioned has several features that NetBeans still lacks (like syntax checking as-you-type and a startup time shorter than Ellison's droning speech at J1). Compared to VB or VC++, J++ was pretty nice. It (and the MS JVM) are pretty antiquated these days, but the products looked like they had a bright future before the Sun lawsuit pushed them into the development of .NET.

I wonder: when Microsoft announces things like those, do they even take it seriously (since everyone knows they'll cancel it later)? Do they hire people? Allocate time for the tasks using Project?
