No, I have lost a week of precious dev time at CT Expo. It has been productive, and we have been giving potential partners a sneak peak at our unannounced product (the one I have been working on for the last year). Once we have announced the product, I will share the news with the thread (about mid may). THis is a big deal for me, as I am a principle architect of the product. Nothing like seeing your baby take off. Regarding Java, it is not ready for enterprise CT. The market is not ready (at least in CT), and Sun is really looking foolish trying to dis Microsoft at every turn (i.e. anybody that is building CT on NT as opposed to Java is out of date and out of touch). Everybody says yea, yea, and then buys NT based systems. the Java side can not offer the features and performance of NT. And NT is a dog, so that tells us a lot about Java. NT is low cost and is the defacto desktop standard. Can't escape those darned legacy issues.
