A Sun controla o futuro do Java ?
Muito se fala na independencia da plataforma Java , e da linguagem Java... e de como a Sun nao detem o controle sobre a plataforma...e sim a JCP. Pois bem... hoje eu vi algo que demonstra isso... a JSR 291 - Dynamic Component Support for Java SE, foi aprovada , mesmo com o voto CONTRA da Sun. Isso serve de exemplo... Java Is Open and Free !

On 2006-03-12 Sun Microsystems, Inc. voted No with the following comment:
Sun remains unclear on the intended purpose of this JSR.
The OSGi specification already exists. As we understand it, this
JSR does not plan to modify the specification.
JSR-277 is defining the next generation module specification for the
Java platform. As has been noted by others, JSR-277 is intended to
cleanly accommodate current custom class loader based solutions such
as OSGi.
This vote is not intended as a negative comment on the OSGi work.
Rather, it is unclear why the community needs a JSR that merely
duplicates the existing OSGi work.
