JDJ issues
As a result of the JBoss expose here and elsewhere, various trade rags have picked up the story. It made it onto slashdot. The comments there of course are equally hilarious and depressing. Amazing how many people fail to grasp the difference between an anonymous post and a fake persona post. Still, that’s to be expected from a bunch of spotty gentoo tuggers anyway.
Not to be outdone, JDJ had to jump in the fray. Needless to say, I strongly approve of their article. I’m hopelessly biased against JBoss so that couldn’t possibly surprise anyone. Cameron buying me so many drinks has also clearly affected my judgement, but oh well.
However, the real fun starts if one were to look at what else is going on at JDJ now. On the one hand we have a sane sensible article about happy community building and a mild waggle of the finger in the general direction of JBoss, and on the other hand we have….immature BEA bashing.
This farce started a couple of days ago, when JDJ ran an article about BEA ‘firing’ sys-con and electing to go with another publisher for an ‘official’ Weblogic magazine. BEA pointed out that sys-con’s Weblogic magazine is unaffiliated with them and suchlike and so forth.
At this point, it’s pretty clear that various head honchos at sys-con all simultaneously soiled their panties and suffered a fairly embarrassing bout of serious backdoor leakage. What follows is an amateur campaign of insults that would be quite newsworthy if it wasn’t trumped so thoroughly by those JBoss tards.
JDJ is now merrily in the process of running at least one or two disparaging BEA articles a day. These articles are hilarious. It’s like watching a three year old spastic child shaking his fists and expressing his anger by leaking from all orifices. Pretty it is not.
