And the Vote is...

Although I have a hard time understanding the stance of IBM. First people specify a Mercedes. Then someone is dissatisfied with the color and creates the specs for a Wartburg. Then IBM thinks the two should be welded (no pun intended) together. Then they complain that the aesthetic problems of having a Wart hanging on a Mercedes hasn't been solved. No $hit, Sherlock?

And the voting process should add another option, B4B (Bad for Business) so SpringSource would finally be able to vote! ;-) Or perhaps they have forgot the password? Nah, they remembered to vote for 330...

Does it still pass even with IBM's no vote?

[nickarls]

Yes, it's majority voting so no problem, just some general ranting on their vote ;-)

As long as it passes and 299 is injected into the SE/EE communities, isn't that good enough for the 1st round?

But if 299/CDI supports SE and EE, then why is there a need for 330?

AFAIKT because the Spring guys did not like 299, so they created they own... politics and economics, the 2 forces that truly shape software: engineering is nothing when compared to them... ;-)
