Slashdot On The Squabble Between Sun And Eclipse
January 31st, 2004 by Mark Rittman
Slashdot reports a
squabble between Sun and Eclipse:
"CNET news is reporting on a
potential spat
between Sun and Eclipse: ‘Sun Microsystems has sent a letter to members of
Eclipse, urging the increasingly influential open-source project to unify
rather than fragment the Java-based development tool market.’ Although Sun’s
letter says it wants interoperability, and a ‘broad base’ for java tools, it
then insists Eclipse should push to be a ‘unifying force for Java
technology’. Competing tools is a good thing, but it sounds like Sun just
wants everything to work its way."
