Don't expect to get an answer for Sun. They are seriously disconnected from real-world programming and to arrogant to take the opinions of bread-and-butter programmers into account.
They probably never stood in front of a customer who threatens your entire existance by withdrawing from the contract if you don't fix a "cosmetic" bug. A bug caused by the fact that Java doesn't play nice with the host operating system. Or they never lost money because Sun suddenly out of the blue withdraw a complete API implementation (JavaComm for Windows) and you had to stop shiping a software until ported to a more trustworthy alternative.
And the Sun Java developers are probably bored to death. That would at leat explain why they come ou with one stupid idea and half-baked implementation after the other. Oh, I could keep them busy for years. I would relegate that bored arrogant bunch to fixing each and every bug in the bug parade. |
