P.S. It would seem the same applies in the application server space. Despite J2EE being an open-standard, it is complicated enough that WebLogic and WebSphere had different proprietary extensions to J2EE and really use this "open standards" nonsense (from the perspective of BEAS and IBM) as a marketing tool.


Some one wrote that it would be like Apple and Microsoft using the unix kernel (unix is open), yet Apple and Microsoft provide a GUI and may other APIs which means software for Windows doesn't necessarily work for the MacOS.

I think the actual comment was a little different, but that's the idea. Both Weblogic and WebSphere may use J2EE which is an open-standard, yet the ISVs (Independent software vendors) have to make software for each ePS if they want their product to work with them. If this is all true, then this could make the ePS a gorilla game.
