I didn't see the word "legacy" technology used in the article, but I think a lot of the stuff in the weekday column is exactly what people associate with the word legacy. I mean soap and xslt !? That is straight from the darkest era of bloated J2EE apps.
- cgh 10y agoActually back in the day, it was Microsoft who was pushing SOAP the hardest. Don Box, one of SOAP's creators, is a "technical fellow" at Microsoft. This is the same guy who coined the term "COM is love". Dark days indeed.
- flukus 10y agoUsing SOAP to do programming across networks was also part of their .net "vision" at least according to the marketing I saw, I think this was how it got the .net name in the first place. Then it eventually came out and the reaction was "oh, it's a java clone".
