Personally, I find C# interesting, but Java is far more
comfortable. Of course part of Java's comfort level is
simply because it's been around longer, and one now knows
about its many blemishes (some of which Sun has attempted
to fix). For its part C# has some problems, and feels
overly complicated; one might even be far better off using
gsoap, for example -- an ANSI C SOAP implementation.
I'm still hoping for a true opensource Java. I think Java
1.6 source has been released under a rather restrictive
license, but would have to look.
