The Java hype is ending as can be seen by these comments from Oracle: Message 4066838 ''People are using Java as a weapon - one company against another,'' said Mark Jarvis, Oracle's vice president of system products. ''The problem is that it's become a religious war. It's time for the industry to talk about how to take Java to the bank, not the church. That's what our focus is.'' Even Sun Microsystems Inc., Java's creator, has dropped some of its religious rantings in recent weeks, Rappaport says. At a Java developers' conference in March, John Gage, head of Sun's hardware division science office, conceded that for Java to succeed, Microsoft doesn't have to fall. ... But mainstream acceptance of business- based Java Web applications is yet to come. ''It's still moving up the demand curve in corporations,'' Quinn said. ''It's not a full-blown case that companies are saying they need a Java Web application server yesterday. You won't see the mainstream nibbling on this until the other side of the year 2000.'' *************** XML has booted Java off centre stage and is the new kid in town.
