Sun Makes Java Simpler, May Call Upon Developers to Help
Sun Microsystems wants to simplify Java for developers and get more of them involved in its evolution. "We as a community -- not just Sun -- need to make Java easier to develop to and get it out to the masses of developers to make Java successful long term," said Ingrid Van den Hoogen, director of Java marketing, during a recent interview with DevX. "Ease of development is always an issue that comes up, and we want to address that head-on." [DevX.com]
