Java This was a letter I recently wrote to Sun's head of global communications, Russ Castronovo, after reading his interview with Chuck Talk on orangecrate.com, and then reading the ongoing pro-/anti-Mono arguments over at PlanetGnome. Now that Sun seems to be on the brink of making the decision to open-source Java (or not to), I thought it would be an appropriate time to take action.

Please clarify why you "fear" MS Technology filtrating into Linux. If the technology were enencumbered (and that hasn't been established yet), don't you think it would be able to stand on its merits. I've read much about .NET, it's goals, methods and implementation and it all sounds technically sound. Please clarify what it exactly it is you fear.
