Response to: Does this vision include SWT, JBoss and Eclipse?
Come on, you can do better than that! 1. What exactly is SWT's direction, and why is it wrong? 2. What is so complicated about JBoss, and why does that exclude them from the java.net vision (whatever THAT is...)? 3. What is wrong with Eclipse? What makes NetBeans better? Just making assertions doesn't encourage community discussion. Give reasons so we can discuss your points. Stating 'X is shit' or 'Y is wrong' is almost meaningless. It's essentially like saying 'I dont like X and Y, so there'. It comes across as entirely subjective, and provides us with no foundation for discussion. It's also a very hostile way to behave, and certainly does not encourage a community spirit to develop around the Java platform.
