Sun opens Java Thursday, November 16, 2006 @ 03:02:45 AST by meshal (841 reads) |  Sun Microsystems Inc. of Santa Clara, Calif., has released the source code to its widely used Java programming language. Analysts see the move as one that should widen the reach of the already-prevalent language.
The announcement also comes after years of Sun declining to open Java, even as Sun released many of its other technologies, including the Solaris operating system, as open source.
The company will post the source code to various pieces of Java over the next few months, according to Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz, who announced the release today. Available immediately, on the Java.net site, is the code for the Java Platform Standard Edition—which has over 6 million lines of code—and the Java Platform Micro Edition for embedded systems.
The company estimates that there are five million Java developers worldwide and more than 3.8 billion machines running Java in some form. The company hopes to extend the reach of Java by allowing outside developers to contribute to its advancement.

Review: CrossOver Office 4.2 Sunday, May 01, 2005 @ 17:11:15 AST by meshal (874 reads) | NewsForge:
Last month CodeWeavers Inc. released version 4.2 of its
WINE-based Windows binary compatibility application, three months
after the previous release. If you've used CrossOver Office in the
past, you won't see much different with the new version. Most of its
enhancements and updates are internal, adding better support for
more applications and some bug fixes in the installer and menu
creation utility.
"While the original release allowed Microsoft Office and Lotus
Notes to run on GNU/Linux, CrossOver Office now supports many more
programs."
