It was an honor to work with you. Your legacy to the java community won’t be forgotten.

Looking forward to seeing what your new endeavours will be. I’m sure they will be as inspiring as the work you did at Sun.

Best wishes,

Fabiane

You are right to identify open source as a long-term bet at Sun, and of course it was especially aimed at maintaining and increasing the relevance of Sun’s offerings in the market.

But to your specific question, there were many customers of Sun’s who demanded to see that Sun was serious about open source (maybe not yours?), and also who needed to understand what the commercial proposition becomes when discussing software products with open source code. I am struggling to think anyone could have been much more credible in this effort than Simon.
