    java.net: a monoculture
    
   
    
     One of the things that I love the most about being involved with the Apache Software Foundation is the diversity.  We have the C based-httpd folks, the Java Jakarta folks, and the Java, C, and Perl folks at XML.  The different styles and values are refreshing and invigorating.
In a similar vein, I've appreciated the chance to get into the minds/culture of (dare I say it) Microsoft and Microsoft affiliated developers via the blogosphere.    It's been a thought provoking experience.
Sun wants java.net to be the premier Java community, and thats a reasonable goal for them to have.  What I'm finding is that I'm looking to broaden the community that I'm involved in, not narrow it.  I want to learn from the experiences of people coming from a totally different view of the world than me.
