Just as a point of reference, when Sun made their recent announcement about opening Java under the GPL, I saw a lot of interesting mailing list traffic. People who haven't looked Java since programming class in University were saying, "Let's figure out how to get people like me up to speed on Java."[1] Some similar things for Mono, when that got included in the distro. There are more open minds out there than you'd think. It is IMHO opinion better to listen to them and put our energy into supporting those people than anyone who has language-hate in their eyes. :) - Karsten [1] I opened this but haven't had anybody contributing yet: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Docs/Drafts/JavaProgramming -- Karsten Wade, RHCE, 108 Editor ^ Fedora Documentation Project Sr. Developer Relations Mgr. | fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject quaid.108.redhat.com | gpg key: AD0E0C41 ////////////////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
