Hi,
i read some interesting news in german magazine.
http://www.heise.de/developer/meldung/Oracle-will-auch-kostenpflichtige-Java-Virtual-Machine-anbieten-1131860.html
Here is an english translation (gooles, not mine):
Oracle will offer future apparently based on the OpenJDK project, both a
free Java Virtual Machine (JVM) and a paid version. That is the message
of a presentation by Adam Messinger on the meeting in San Francisco QCon
event. According to Oracle's Vice President for Development, both
versions have their basis in the currently developed together the
JRockit VM and the Hotspot JVM should have. Work on a unified virtual
machine had Oracle in February 2010, shortly after completion of the
acquisition by Oracle Suns announced. This was then confirmed at JavaOne
Keynote in Java.
In February, the monitoring and control functions were highlighted in
Oracle JRockit, and Sun's HotSpot JVM performance properties. How
different the free paid by the JVM should not speak about the Oracle
Manager. Messinger also had no information on the prices, but he
stressed that Oracle offset the cost of Java more elsewhere and there
will always be a well-functioning free JVM would. It is expected that
the commercial version is at least better integration with Oracle's
middleware products bring.
