... on the server. I cant understand why Sun won't focus on its core strength: the server.

I am a designer and engineer. I use Flash/AS3 for client-side development and Java for the server. Sun should not attempt to play catch up w/ Adobe. Adobe has much more sensitivity to client-side developers.

That said, I would not consider using AS3 for the server. Or .NET or PHP or Ruby, etc. I love writing Java for serious server side applications...

Mina, BerkeleyDB Java edition, Apache Commons, etc etc etc... There are so many great packages for server side developers.

SUN: WAKE UP! Focus on your core competency. Support your existing community. Don't attempt to look for a new community. You risk losing the existing one!!!!
