Sun's Java chief: The race has been won eWEEK As a former seminary student, Patricia Sueltz has no problem expressing passion for causes in which she believes. Java is Sueltz's latest passion, first as head of IBM's Java efforts and then, beginning last December, as president of Sun Microsystems Inc.'s (Nasdaq:SUNW - news) Software Products and Platforms group. At Sun's JavaOne conference in San Francisco earlier this month, Sueltz preached the Java gospel to eWEEK editors Rob O'Regan and Scot Petersen. eWEEK: Can the surge of development in Java be attributed at least in part to the uncertainty surrounding Microsoft? SUELTZ: No. I think it is certainty around people wanting accessibility to information anytime, anywhere, from any device. We are beyond whimsy [with Java], we are running our lives. eWEEK: So what's the strategy behind your pitch that developers can make a lot of money around Java? (See story.) SUELTZ: When Java was getting started, there was a lot of religious fervor around it. It was really us -- the Java community -- against Microsoft. There was a zealousness about it. dailynews.yahoo.com. Ralf
