Comment Bill Joy - Open Source curmudgeon (Score 1) 106
I heard Bill Joy speak at Sun's "Developer Days" in Seattle last year. He mentioned Open Source briefly in the context of code reliability. He said that while everyone has been talking about this "Open Source" thing, he just wanted software components to work well consistently, something that he doesn't believe Open Source does particularly well.
Sun will advocate Open Source when it in convenient. Do not be mislead as to their intentions.
