Memo to Oracle: Donât Mess Up Java
,----[ Quote ]
| Still, the bigger area of competitive
| interest may involve Sunâs Java. Just last
| week, Ingres CEO Roger Burkhardt said
| potential issues around Java â rather than
| MySQL â are more strategic to the industry.
|
| And today, Red Hat Middleware VP Craig
| Muzilla said Red Hat hasâ
|
| ââhigh hopes that Oracle will not only
| serve as a faithful steward of this
| important technology, but will also be
| a positive force in driving the future
| of Java in collaboration with the
| members of the JCP [the Java Community
| Process].â

Red Hat to Oracle - Open up the Java Community Process
,----[ Quote ]
| Red Hat has asked Oracle to help keep Java
| as one of the "most important technologies
| developed during the past twenty years" by
| creating an open and independent Java
| Community Process. The call from Craig
| Muzilla, Red Hat vice president for
| middleware, comes in a posting on the
| company's web site. It points out that Red
| Hat have become much more involved in Java,
| with its acquisition and growth of it's
| JBoss middleware and has been leading
| specifications such as JSR299 (Contexts and
| Dependency Injection) and JSR303 (Bean
| Validation) through the Java Community
| Process.

State of the Union at Red Hat
,----[ Quote ]
| Iâm kicking off my third year at Red Hat
| this month and would like to take a step
| back as we move into 2010 to reflect on the
| past year. In keeping with the U.S.
| presidential tradition of delivering a
| âState of the Unionâ address each January,
| Iâd like to maintain a similar tradition at
| Red Hat and highlight some of our
| milestones from 2009.

The vampires vs. Rimini Street
,----[ Quote ]
| This is all somewhat rich, coming from a
| company which not too many years ago
| claimed it could offer âunbreakable Linuxâ
| support that is better than what Red Hat
| Software can provide. Itâs also an
| interesting follow-up lawsuit to the one
| launched against SAP subsidiary and support
| services firm TomorrowNow, which Rimini CEO
| Seth Ravin also co-founded. That case also
| claimed illegal downloads of support-
| related information.

Red Hat becomes an open source community organizer
,----[ Quote ]
| The most important is probably Venkatesh
| Hariharan (right), who goes by the screen
| name Venky and is listed as head of open
| source affairs at Red Hat. I see him as key
| because Venky is a journalist, thus I assume
| the editor here.
|
| He has already done grand work bringing a
| South Asian perspective to the open source
| community through his own blog. He is co-
| founder of IndLinux, the team that localized
| both GNOME and KDE for the Indian Linux
| community and has been a Knight science
| journalism fellow at MIT.
