Cynic in me thinks this is just another IBM project thrown over the fence to die in the Apache graveyard. I hope that's very wrong in this case.

- ealexhudson 11y agoCertainly, if criticism is a problem, then doing something in the open with the community is probably not going to end well.

- ricksplat 11y agoThe cynic in me thinks it's often a case of a product line they no longer want to support but for which an established user base already exists (Flex comes to mind). The optimist in me thinks this isn't necessarily a bad thing though, it's certainly better than just killing it altogether. The FOSS idealist in me thinks it's great to be getting all this stuff, under an Apache licence!
