The Top 5 Ways Oracle Is Being a Better Citizen
Alex Handy, writing for the SD Times, has a nice list of the top ways Oracle is being an excellent citizen within the enterprise technology and software development communities. Here’s the high-level list, but you owe it to yourself to see Handy’s rationale behind each.
- Handing Hudson over to the Eclipse Foundation
- Pushing OpenJDK as the Java SE 7 reference implementation
- Open-sourcing JRockit
- IDEs
- Not screwing up VirtualBox
In a casual search through Twitter on this topic, most people tend to agree. Have you noticed?
Again, I suggest reading the whole thing to understand the framing of each of these points.
