Just had the pleasure of interviewing Richard Monson-Haefel

I have just finished writing up my interview with the well known Java celebrity Richard Monson-Haefel. It was a fun piece to do and I asked him many Java questions including his recent appointment to the JCP Executive Commitee.

One of the refreshing things I discovered was that Richard wasn't scared to point out Java's weak areas and wasn't one of the gung-ho bridgade that thought everything with a Java stamp on it was great. For that alone, I am very comfortable having a man with this attitude at the head JCP table. Java is in good hands.

The interview will be published next month in Java Developer's Journal.
