Sun yanks FreeBSD's Java licenseSun yanks FreeBSD's Java licensePosted Jan 11, 2005 10:04 UTC (Tue) by nix (subscriber, #2304)In reply to: Sun yanks FreeBSD's Java license by mmarq Parent article: Sun yanks FreeBSD's Java license
Since there are already much less bloated and as good or better than SUN, Java VMs and JIT out there...Really? Name one. There are good java compilers; but there is currently no effective competing VM or JDK to my knowledge (not least because Sun's implementations of the VM and JDK have an incestuous and undocumented interrelationship so you effectively can't reimplement one without reimplementing the other, too). If there is one, please tell me what it is: I'd like to get rid of the last non-free software on my machine.

Sun yanks FreeBSD's Java license Posted Jan 11, 2005 11:44 UTC (Tue) by dmantione (guest, #4640) [Link] The IBM JDK is quite good. It's a little bit hard to find on the IBM website, but it is there, up to date, and I'm using it.
However, it is just as propietary as the Sun JDK. However, I have more respect for IBM than I have for Sun, so I'm using that one.
