The proof is in the pudding... Sun dances with this all the time, personally, I think its just a marketing ploy. RedHat's development efforts with gcj and GNU classpaths is making very good progress. Now that JBoss is apart of RH, one can only see the open JVM will improve greatly. The fact that I do not need to run a closed JVM to run OOo, eclipse, azureus etc on FC5 is very cool. The fact that I can build limewire, for example, with out Sun's JDK is even better! There is on going work on the mozplugin to make it work better with this enviroment and should be released in FC6 is really good. So why worry about Sun's JVM? Michael
