[OT] Microsoft Sets Tolls for .Net Developers
Why am I not surprised? The funny thing is that even in this down economy and with all the free (better?) alternatives that are out there, people will actually still pay for this stuff! We should put a paypal link on the Jakarta homepage and donate the money to AIDS research or some other worthy cause. -jon -- Forwarded Message Link: http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=01/10/24/010249 Posted by: michael, on 2001-10-24 11:40:44 Topic: ms, 153 comments from the firstborn-son-comes-later dept. matsh writes: Today Microsoft [1]revealed the cost of signing up as a developer to .Net.

+1 Please note: people from other projects are giving their vote...while the voice is appreciated, that vote doesn't really count since it is only the PMC's decision to include new projects. -jon - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Export regulation, I believe... When you add that to (iv), we should definitely check the originating IP address, and make sure we're not exporting crypto stuff in places where we shouldn't... I believe that regarding cryptographic software there are still a lot of hurdles to clear. (I believe we don't even redistribute OpenSSL together with Apache 2.0, even though it's required to build the SSL module in it).

I think it was generally agreed that the package is complete, highly useful and many people expressed an interested in having it be a Jakarta project. Markus has already made a first pass at organizing the source in a Jakarta like format and I have offered to help with the rest of work if we agree to accept the package into Jakarta.

Re: [OT] Microsoft Sets Tolls for .Net Developers
Agreed. I've also been suprised by the recent rise in FUD thats coming our way... http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-10-2001/jw-1019-iw-netvsjava.html? A nice MS marketting strategy seems to be comparing .Net to EJBs rather than to Java (or Servlets or JAXM or whatnot). Hardly a fair or useful comparison. .Net still seems to use COM under the covers anyways so COM v EJB or .NET v. Java seems more sensible but then I suppose thats the point of FUD afterall.

unfortunately, there is an entire class of developer that can only build software using microsoft tools. microsoft has moved into .edu territory and is giving away their tools for free. the kids are becoming attached to them. matt - Original Message - From: Jon Stevens [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2001 5:41 PM Subject: [OT] Microsoft Sets Tolls for .Net Developers Why am I not surprised?

RE: [OT] Microsoft Sets Tolls for .Net Developers
Title: RE: [OT] Microsoft Sets Tolls for .Net Developers I don't understand the business model behind .NET. The article mentions developers paying to develop and deploy services, but also users paying to use them. Paying for an online agenda? document storage? e-wallet? This looks like the e-commerce flop on steroids.

BCEL @ Jakarta
Hi, Here's a summary of the PMC voting with respect to moving BCEL to Jakarta: [+1] Peter Donald [+1] Pierpaolo Fumagalli [+1]Ted Husted [ ] Ceki Gülcü [+1] Geir Magnusson Jr. [ ] Vincent Massol [+1] Craig McClanahan [+1] Sam Ruby [+1] Daniel Savarese [+1] Jon Stevens [+1] Jason van Zyl This gives us the 3/4 PMC approval rating so I believe BCEL will be moving to Jakarta unless Ceki and/or Vincent express disapproval. We'll let this float for another day or two to let anyone get their votes/concerns registered. -- jvz.

Re: RMI Messaging
JXTA is an attempt to define peer-peer based protocols. (http://jxta.org) RMI is client-server and so not the best way of doing peer based messaging. You might find JMS useful instead for publish / subscribe or queue based communication. Publish / subscribe is very peer based.

RE: [OT] Microsoft Sets Tolls for .Net Developers
While MS does a lot of things wrong, this isn't one of them.
