Big Question for Sun
It looks from the outside as though every spare resource that Sun has is going into JavaFX. JavaFX may or may not win against Flash/Flex/Air/Silverlight/Android/Ajax, but while Sun is concentrating on FX, it doesn't appear to be giving the Java language the updates it badly needs.
Maybe Sun sees Java as 'done'. OK, but the Java language has one of the largest developer communities in the world, and they'd like some direction. Where do Sun recommend they go for their server-side development needs in 5 years time?
Maybe Sun think we should change to JRuby, Scala or Groovy. Maybe there are updates to Java that I don't know about. If none of the above are the case, the community will eventually disappear into mish-mash of languages that doesn't have the strength of numbers.
