Ten Brilliant Years @ JAVA DEVELOPER'S JOURNAL

The year 2006 marked the tenth anniversary of the Java language and for me is the most significant in its history. The most important event was the announcement that a GPL version of Java SE will be available sometime in the first half of 2007. If nothing else, all the back and forth 'will they, won't they' discussions over open source have been a distraction for the Java community.
