A speculation as to whom Noam was referring to at the annual meeting, as advising MRV, & was one of the original founders of Sun. Most likely the reference is to Bill Joy, Sun's Chief Technology Officer. He's responsible for "spearheading its open systems philosophy", "driven the initial business and technical strategy for Java, co-designed the picoJava and ultraJava processor architectures", & " most recent work is on the Jini distributed computing technology for networking computer devices using Java". "In 1997, Joy was appointed by President Clinton as Co-Chairman of the Presidential Information Technology Advisory Committee. The Advisory Committee is providing guidance and advice on all areas of high-performance computing, communications and information technologies to accelerate development and adoption of information technologies that will be vital for American prosperity in the twenty-first century. The report of the committee is available at hpcc.gov. "His current research is into new uses of distributed computing enabled using Java and Jini, new methods of human-computer interaction, new microprocessor and system architectures, and the uses in computing of scientific advances in areas such as complex adaptive systems, quantum computing, and the cognitive sciences." conferences.oreilly.com An interview w/Bill Joy. wired.com Regis
