That said, I think that Java EE has enough vendor support to succeed without Oracle at the helm. Oracle will also likely remain a key player...but they will be equal to the other community contributors. Also, since the TCKs are being open sourced, this opens the door for even more interested parties to develop compatible solutions.<br /><br />I think that this is the right time for the open sourcing because Java EE was slowly beginning to fall behind with the current technology trends. Now that more key players have open access to help push the platform forward, it should help Java EE to retain a leading edge.Josh Juneauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09428149784665036612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25636372.post-61768381004060363392017-10-12T12:11:39.851-07:002017-10-12T12:11:39.851-07:00honestly...

I have some concerns that the community is as strong as it's required to go ahead and push a real industry standard as Java EE is at the moment.<br />Sometimes, it has also some advantages if a big player is responsible for a direction. And I personally liked the way Oracle involved the community.Matthias Reininghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01265203048010941977noreply@blogger.com
